[QUOTE="sacreligion:534218"]DrewBlood@Work said:[QUOTE]You have to throw in the additional costs (sound, security, rentals, backline, promotion, staff, liscenses, liquor, police detail). 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] either way, with these shows it always ends up being like 5 or 6 local openers(if all do their jobs, that means the promoter is getting what, anywhere from $7500-$9000?) That's not including the door either. So basically, the bands that sold the tickets are the reason the show happens, and they end up playing to nobody because they're stuck going on at 6 in the afternoon.[/QUOTE]
