    I think Im going to start a band :D

  • I didn't catch the free drinks bit! They will be demanding champers next. Its not like they are playing Wembley and they can demand what they want in their dressing room!

    Every act up and down the country will be peeing their pants reading this I can tell you! It is definately not a glamourous life travelling in a transit van I can tell you!!

    They state they must be supplied with a hot meal for each band member, they will not accept buffet food or 15.00 per head will be charged.
    I've just realised they are at points they are an 11 piece band so thats £165 on top of what you're paying anyway.:eek:

    Certainly, consider yourself lead trianglist ;)

    I want gallons of Strawberry Brothers on my riser, also kittens and fresh fruit in my dressing room.

    You forgot to mention the two bronzed adonis blokes you need to wipe you down after all that hard work on stage!
  • I can play a wonderful tune with my armpit. Am I in?

    For my part I would like a chocolate fountain and unlimited Magners in my air conditioned room, served to me by an oompa loompa.

    Hopefully for the clients sake though I'd be too violently sick by then to perform my solo effort on stage.

    No.


    But you can be the [STRIKE]"friend"[/STRIKE] member of the public who comes in and tells us to stop playing 10 mins after we start.

    Noise Restrictions
    While the Band will always try to play at a volume appropriate to the Venue, the minimum level of
    volume is largely dictated by live drums. As a result, the volume of the Band cannot be controlled in
    the same way as pre-recorded music. If the Band is asked to play music at a volume that they
    consider unsuitable for their performance, the Band will immediately cease playing and the Client
    will be liable for the full performance fee. The Band will stop playing immediately when instructed
    to do so by the Client, the Venue manager, catering staff, police, local council or by any member of
    the public
  • The T & C's are hilarious!

    Gone are the days when we would play a working mens club with the old dears complaining the noise was too much with their fingers in their ears coughing at our smoke machine shouting we were killing them with "all our smoke" while they were chain smokng wooodbines all night!:rotfl:

    Oh I do miss those days!

    Not sure what our next step should be. Solicitors are naturally wanting high fees.

    Perhaps we should just wait.
