[NewMusic] climate

[Matt Davignon]

Zac, the guy who runs the series, posted the details about the door
money policies. (Is that what you were asking?) Anyway, they went
something like this....

60% for artists, 40% for venue, except the venue gets a $100
guarantee. Which means they take the first $100.

Personally, I don't think that's terrible. The venues that can offer
better deals are a blessing, but not really something to take for
granted. Not many venues have what 21 Grand, LSG and 1510 has, which
is a crew that more or less volunteer their time, and a space that can
get by on less door income. Other than Zac, who said he volunteers
this time, I bet the climate has some other staff that they need to
pay, and that money has to come from somewhere.

I haven't been to a show there yet, but that's mostly due to my schedule.
