[QUOTE="WhyamIandasshole:27645"] If you cant guarantee a band at least some money before playing thats just inconciderate and can get you on bad terms with lots of hardworking bands. No. Thats just how it is. And if the hardworking bands don't like it they don't have to play. $50 is not a lot of money at all. we usually travel with 3 cars to get us to shows. it prob costs us on average of $30 of gas to get there and maybe the same amount to get back. Not to mention taking work off. I saw that in an average 6 hour day after taxes I make about $50 so if I spend the same amount of time to prep and play a show I think thats worthwild. I'm not going to get in a debate about this anymore. If you dont like the policy then thats fine. Devon[/QUOTE] Look I'm not trying to bust your balls here but every band that goes out and play's shows is hardworking. And they all get screwed over. And until your band is selling CD's and Merch and drawing 100-200 people everytime you play your band isn't worth $50. Now someone like Joe who probably loses money half the time he has to put money up can't afford to pay every band. And he doens't have to. He's doing more work contacting bands getting the venue promoting the show than the bands who just have to show up. The show I booked at the elks lodge I lost money on. And truth be known I felt bad I couldn't pay you guys because you brought in the most people. But thats just how it is. Playing shows is a privilage and an oppertunity. The money is secondary until it become enough of an amount that it maters. Asking for some money at the end of the night isn't a bad thing but expecting it is a little unrealistic. [/QUOTE]
