And my biggest take away from the article is… no one is forcing the artist to make the poster. If the fee structure is not satisfactory then just say no thank you.0 -

If the fee structure is not satisfactory then just say no thank you.Also keep in mind, this is an artist who has never done concert posters before, i’m sure more established artists can negotiate different deals than this-either 100 APs and a percentage, or more APs. But it really isn’t as bad as it seems at first glance.0 -
Since they're not coming to Belgium or near us I'm thinking of doing London and Berlin back-to-back. First time I'd be going alone. You guys have any tips or tricks on going alone to a PJ concert?Werchter '14

Leave your smartphone in your pocket for the entire concert and soak up every second with your senses.

Thank goodness PJ has boots. I wish more bands offered them, or at least more would allow tapers.0 -

I'd need to know what someone like Phish or Foo Fighters pay. Or whomever. The artist stands to gross 7-10k on a Pearl Jam AP. That seems pretty good to me but who knows.0 -
Basically I think this setup needs to reflect some upside for the artist since they're taking on some risk. If it does, it's a totally fair offer.0

wrigley is double the capacity, but does it have more than double the demand?
I know there are other factors: TC allotment, demand…etc.

It’s not 100% but pretty close, especially since they are reserving more tickets then ever.

I think I'm more in favor of fewer, but better 10C seats. I don't expect that to be realistic as the new model of loading the 300's up with 10C seats really helps to sell the place out quickly."A smart monkey doesn't monkey around with another monkey's monkey" - Darwin's Theory0 -

Just using the most recent Wrigley shows as an example, I'd have to say they sold at least 30,000 posters total for those shows. And that's a conservative estimate. They had multiple merch booths open all day long, for multiple days, with non-stop lines that sometimes lasted as long as 5hrs. I watched truck after truck pull up with stack after stack after stack of posters all day and night. So, say they did only sell 30k posters for those shows. At $40 each, the band made well over a million dollars on posters for those shows, while the people who actually created those posters only made $7-10k. That seems good to you?0
