If this is at the Palladium, you are looking at $3000 without any band garantees. Thats three large, my friend, up front. Goatwhore will get about 500-750 and God Forbid (the darlings of Ozzfest) could get upwards of $2500. That gives you a MINIMUM of $6000 to put on that show. However, the other side of booking a show at the Palladium is that you get to charge the bands and the labels that they are on a merchandising fee. I can't verify this, but I've heard that the Palladium double dips on this, meaning that the label will pay the merch fee and then they have the band pay it again. That will knock off about $500 from the cost. [/QUOTE]
