Default If anybody cares, I did the show.

Well if anybody remembers me posting a setlist here on a tribute show i was going to do with my band well I did the show we were suppossed to get paid $500 after the nights end and the promoters of that night's "events" decided not to pay us fully because we performed one of our original songs mixde with the whole BJ set list and that we were supposed to get up there and perform Bon Jovi songs and give people a tribute act and not promote our own material.Shit is this legal?? any way here is what the setlist ended up being:

Lay your hands on me
One wild night
You give love a bad name
Everyday
Undivided
Born to be my baby
Just Older
Always
Fear
I believe
I'll sleep when i'm dead
raise your hands
Blood on blood
---------------------------------------
The distance
This mourning/the only one/Die for me(the originals if anybody wonders)
Dry county
Bounce
---------------------------------------
It's my life
Keep the faith
Blaze of glory[color=][/color]

promoters are the dirtiest bastards you'll ever come across in the business.

My bro does it and he refuses to rip people off even though it i tell him it's in his own interest.

if you played 1 or 2 tunes i suggest you get a heavy or 2 to go and "re negotiate" with the promoter. amazing what it can do.

nah mate i dunnop how many gigs you've done for a proper promoter before but if he's not giving you you're wages for 3 half songs then he's taking the piss.

find out who you're countryies peroforming society is ie UK has the prs and star t questin ing him abou twhethe rthteyve been paid and im pretty sure he'll chamnge his mind.

apologies.

what i'm saying is that your country will have a performing rights society ie the people who divvy out performance royalties to band.

Now he should have given them money since you pretty much did a bon jovi but chances are he hasn't so if you start askign questions about it he might back down and give you your money.

how much less are we talkign here? if its not a considerable amount then you're probably best to just give it a by.
