| _______________________________ [May 28,2013 8:10am - GregS ""] fernando said:http://nh.craigslist.org/muc/3832182395.html one thing he forgot to mention was that they didn't bring gear because of personal issues. Also if you Dont play there's no cover to split. Pros play no matter what. I never expect to get a shake down for gas money for your mom, girlfriends or whatever. that's ridiculous and you should be ashamed. |
| __________________________________ [May 28,2013 9:02am - fernando ""] Lol at "personal issues." We didn't bring gear (a PA) because we weren't told to bring gear. Also, if you don't promote, there's no cover to split. The whole evening was a waste of time, and time is money. I will not be ashamed for sticking up for my band when a promoter tries to fuck us. |

| _______________________________________ [May 28,2013 10:11am - Jerry LOLer ""] I don't know either of you but here's where both of you jabronies went wrong. Fernando - No idea what band you're in but this is what you get for opting to play any and every show just because it's offered to you. The proper thing to do when a promoter won't pay you is to just swipe a few microphones but OH WAIT... there was no PA because you agreed to play a show booked by a retard. GregS - How did you seriously not know there wasn't a PA? That's literally the first thing you ask before you take to the internet and brag about all the awesome music you're going to book. You sound like a useless piece of shit. "Pro's play no matter what," says a guy who has never booked anything in his life and has no business telling anyone what "pro's" do with their time. Also I'm fining you 1000 RTTP points for trying to make it seem like the band didn't bring any gear. I'm sure they brought their amps and instruments. They didn't bring a PA to a club show because that's your job. I've also never heard of an entire show's worth of bands dropping off the bill without anyone even taking notice and trying to replace them. FINAL VERDICT: Fernando should have known better but Greg should have comped the band $20 out of his own pocket for gas. The whole night was a disaster and it was 100% his fault. He's a new promoter trying to get some credibility. You do that by taking care of your shows and not dicking bands around. SENTENCING: Greg is hereby placed on the RTTP shitlist. His show listings on RTTP will be trolled into oblivion. He will be harassed at length and exposed for the useless phony promoter he is until he packs it up like his predecessors before him and quits. So it shall be. |
| ________________________________ [May 28,2013 10:21am - GregS ""] He knew i didnt have a PA. I told him six times. He thought he could borrow one from another band but they booked off. Don't know the truth about their gear really but i offered to pay them gas and comp their food and beer but only if they went on stage. They didn't want to play. Could've done something or waited until i got one in but instead they demanded money for nothing. I said no. If your van breaks down and you cant bring all your gear fine we can work it out but the whole pay me or else threats wont fly. |
| _______________________________________ [May 28,2013 10:22am - Jerry LOLer ""] Followup Sentencing: Fernando, I just found your band. -1,000 RTTP points as well. |
| ________________________________ [May 28,2013 10:22am - GregS ""] Not much to it. |

I was totally on my way to the show but then Rebecca needed her insolent?... ensure?.... I dunno whatever man her fuckin diabetes medicine n shit that she just HAD to have. So like I went to go get that at the CVS at the mall which is like of course next to like the last Spencers ever and theyre going out of business and having this siq sale on lava lamps. So I bought like 8 even though one of them was cracked and is like a "fire hazard" or whatever so I figure I'll be a dece' bro-in-lawz and give it to Kim and get her off my back finally but like I ran out of money for the medicine and when i got back home to ask Becks for more she was all gone and shit. I'm totally gonna hear about this one forever... AGAIN. Shit blows but yeah man I keep telling you your'e a terrible promoter just give it up bro, like... grow up already. |

| ___________________________________ [May 28,2013 10:29pm - fernando ""] You told me ZERO times to bring a PA. No response to my email asking what the Code 7 had for a sound system, not when I told you we were running late. We brought all the gear we were thought we needed. If we were EVER told to bring a PA, we would have. And we would have gladly played for our friends, the three rando's at the bar watching the game, the bartender and the waitress. You told me you were going to pay us with the cover charge, but since nobody showed up you couldn't pay us. You barely wanted to be there, that's why you hid in the back room while our buddy called music stores to see if they rented PA equipment. I asked for compensation for a wasted night, you shrugged and said that you didn't know what to tell me. Then I asked you how much you had in your wallet. To which you laughed and said, "Nothing, man." Then I asked how much was on your ATM card, and boy did that strike a nerve, eh? That's when you told me that we better just leave. Never did I threaten you, I was just adamant that you compensate us. The only thing you offered us was some comped beers. Here's a question. With the zero dollars you raked in from the door, if we played PA-less, how would you have paid us? Monopoly money? An IOU for another show? |

| _______________________________ [May 29,2013 7:33am - GregS ""] One last time... here we go. You refused to play because you didn't have what you wanted. In the real world you work not just show up and throw tantrums if things don't go your way. That is how it goes. Go to construction site say to the foreman that you won't work due to not having your boots and demand to be paid for the day anyhow. See how that flies. |
| _____________________________________________ [May 29,2013 8:12am - Ancient Master nli ""] NOT a good metaphor. Its more like showing up at the construction site expecting to work, only to find out your boss never arranged for any of the materials, which he proceeds to blame on you. He of course would have to pay you for your time. Stop denying your incompetency and playing the blame game, man up and admit your mistake. Believe me you will get a lot more respect from others if you do. |

| ______________________________________________________ [Jun 7,2013 1:07pm - DYA is ANALYZING THIS THREAD ""] http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Danth's_Law As an internet discussion grows and grows, it's often tempting to declare victory and move on, especially if you've rammed the point home too many times and your opponent just ignores everythingyou say. In this case, declaring victory and moving on may be legitimate and excusable.Unfortunately, the majority of the time, declaring victory is just spin: a last desperate attempt to trick people into believing you came out on top (providing that they don't actually go and read the discussion, of course). Sometimes, the individuals declaring victory may well be convinced that they're right; often they'll have gone into the discussion knowing that they're right and with no possible option that they might be wrong. When combined with the ability to expel someone from the discussion, Danth's Law takes on a more sinister tone - indicating that a group or individual can only defend themselves on their own terms, through the medium of extreme deceit.More specifically, the person declaring themselves victorious against strong opposition generally cites the quantity of opposition as why they won and no longer have to argue to prove their point - after all, if they weren't so right, why would people be so desperate in refuting them with post after post? This may consist of complaining about the opponent's 'way' of arguing, or just the amount of arguing, number of points brought up, or number of people arguing against them as evidence of their victory, as nonsensical and contradictory as that assertion logically is. |

Seriously, dude, even Sadi fucking Khan knows more than you, and that dude is one of the biggest retards I have ever met in my twenty years on this planet. |

Will the promoter provide accommodation? •Book a venue for that agreed upon date •Promote the upcoming gig to the local press and radio, put up posters and email their mailing list •Make sure everything the band needs is in place - backline, accommodation, rider, etc. •Set up soundcheck times and the running order of the show •Arrange for a support band Venue tied promoters skip the "contact venue" step. |

People like you, Dave, Jordan, and Bernie are the reason why Manchester is dead. Fucking punk. I second this. Im not trying to be anonymous (and im sure some people on here know exactly who i am, hence using this handle to begin with) im just telling you straight out you have no idea what you're doing and the reason Manchester, NH is such a shitty place for live music is because the mentioned above people fucked it up years before you started, and you're just pissing on it even more. Kids in Manchester don't want to go to shows because the people running them suck at their jobs and don't know what to do. Its not difficult to set up shows. Don't fuck over your talent. Have a venue secured. Don't fuck over your talent. Make sure to do your part and get people to come to your shows, you keep the band happy, make sure all equipment requirements are fulfilled. Don't fuck over your talent. Read that article a few posts up and get a clue. |

Also, Keene was becoming just as bad as Manchester thanks to a former associate of Dave's by the name of Ed Wily, who avoided one notorious Manchester hallmark (pay-to-play) while bumping the others up to eleven (bills full of random acts that didn't fit in with one another, dishonesty, burning bridges with a bad attitude, and, last but not least, outright thievery). When Antoine started doing booking at the Railroad sometime around Nov '12, one of the first things that he found out was that Ed stole from and was blacklisted by multiple agencies, collectively owing at least $10-12k to Pantheon and Rock the Nations. That's what we know of, anyways, though he probably stole from other ones as well. What he'd do was wire the upfront money from his gf's account so that it'd be far harder to trace, and if the show didn't break even (like the Origin show), he'd just vanish and not pay another cent. It's been a trip to hell and back just trying to clean up the mess he left. |

We have ten years on you and those were spent in the real world. Do they have PA's in this real world? I'm also in my 30's and I've seen a lot of bad promoters come and go. None of them have ever been this nonchalant about not having a PA for a show. I can't even say I'd give you a pass if you were 18 and didn't know any better. Some of the most memorable shows I've ever seen were booked by 18 year olds that wouldn't have made the mistakes you did. GregS said:I'm not the promoter. He washed his hands with this day one. ??? You booked the bands. You secured the venue. You came on here to PROMOTE your shows. You're the promoter. Or at least you were. Now you're a guy content to have his awesome promoting career wiped out by trolls because he's bent on being a fake tough guy. |

| ___________________________________________ [Jun 19,2013 7:34pm - Reapersgrave nli ""] I remember hearing about Ed Wily, and i think i know what shows you mean. Did he book at the Railroad before Antoine also? I remember when i first heard shows in Keene there was some pay to play shit going on, or shows with enough bands that i assumed it was (especially with headliners such as dying fetus and some tough guy bands i can't remember) but these days i hear the railroad is okay. Keenes just too far that i usually catch the boston shows. |

Keenes just too far that i usually catch the boston shows. Yep. He was the main promoter in the Keene area for about ten or so months and managed to get Tombs, Fetus/JfaC, Origin, Inquisition, and a few others, including the aforementioned brocore bands. I don't believe there was any pay-to-play going on despite his status as one of Dave's former acolytes; no, Ed was just a moron who also happened to be a thief and inveterate liar. He's ripped off quite a few agencies, particularly Pantheon and RtN. The former was particularly egregious and involved his basically vanishing and failing to pay the agency and bands over five thousand dollars. That was his MO: if a show tanked and he wasn't dealing with the band personally, he'd cut off all contact and refuse to pay what he owed, which he got away with thanks to the fact that he never registered his business and handled all cash transactions by way of wiring the money from his girlfriend's account. He's just another conman in a state infamous for them. And yes, Antoine doesn't do any of the shit that Ed did and vehemently refuses to do pay-to-play. As I've already said, he's probably the first honest promoter that this state has had in a long fucking time. |
