Subject: RE: Why do folk clubs charge admission fees?
That's the great and wonderful thing about people like Les and Martin, they know how they got to where they are and they will drop their fees according to the location.


I've even seen a well known name fill in a spot where a booked performer hadn't shown up (death in the family so we weren't angry), and refuse payment for it... unlike another incident where a performer turned up late, started late, upset her audience before they'd even got in their seats, consequently finished late and demanded overtime. She was never booked there again.
