[quote name='Beedster' post='822691' date='Apr 29 2010, 09:05 AM']We've been booked to do a couple of decent size festivals this summer. I received an email this morning from the organiser of one suggesting that we have to pay for our own tickets! OK, I've done freebies in the past, but paying to gig? Anyway, the other guys are somewhat taken aback, but before we go back to them and say 'no way', I thought I'd better check here?

Invoice them in advance for twice the amount of the admission fee as your performance fee. That should bring the realities of the situation a little more into focus.
Damn cheek !!!!
