[QUOTE="sever:1222972"][QUOTE="ShadowSD:1222936"]Whether it's reasonable for a local to ask for a guarantee depends on how long they've been playing around the area, how long they've headlined shows around the area, and how good they hold up right now at the moment as a live band. Without a really solid answer to all three, no local is in a position to even think of asking for a guarantee on a multi-band show. Our band didn't get to the point where we could ask for guarantees until after we had played over a hundred shows across a few different states and headlined several dozen of them.[/QUOTE] I feel that asking for a guaranteed pay out is in the grey-area of the ethical concerns. Certainly, if you are booked on tour, regardless of draw, you should be paid something. Touring isn't easy, you gotta eat, you gotta drive, and sometimes $20 from the door isn't going to cut it. But in an instance where a band has very little travel distance and doesn't have to take major risks such as putting jobs or families on hold, asking for a guarantee is almost self-righteously rude.
