Thread Name: Performers fees (% or flat fee?)
Subject: RE: Performers fees (% or flat fee?)
Here is    something that does annoy me.
The different pricing for different guests,that implies that one guest is better than another,when it may be that one guest is more expensive because he has an agent to pay.
Following on from this, tickets only for some guests,but not for others,again because one guest, may have an agent to pay,and so is more expensive,but the impression the punter gets is that the act that is having tickets sold is better,which is often not the case.
I know I said earlier that ,I didnt care how much was charged at the door providing I got my fees,I should have added providing all guests appear at that club for the same door price.
now I know there is nothing I can do about it,and in the end its up to the organiser, how they price their door[butPricing differently for different artists, I think sends out the wrong message about quality].
