TO ANSWER TO YOUR Q?....@ TI MITCH

A BAND LIKE CARIMI, NU LOOK, T VICE, DJAKOUT, DISIP, TABOU, KREYOL LA.....DO YOU KNOW THE MINIMUN THEY CHARGE THE PROMOTER FOR A BAL IS $4000?...I MEAN THE MINIMUN CAUSE SOME BAL COST MORE THAN $4000.....OKAY

SO LET'S SAY THOSE BANDS HAVE 8 MUSICIENS

8X $300 = $2400

$2400 - $4000 =$1600 THAT'S INCL BAND OWNER'S AT THE SAME PAY WITH GIGGER'S

EXCL: MANAGER

SO YOU TELL ME WHY CAN'T THEY GET $300 PER GIG?

WHAT HAPPEN TO THE $1600 BAL? - THE MANAGER PAY?

NOW WE TALKING ABOUT $4000 BAL....

IF THE BAL IS LESS THAN $4000 I UNDERSTAND ITS OKAY TO GO LOWER THAN $300...

CAUSE I KNOW SOME OF THE BAND ON THAT LIST CHARGE BETWEEN $4000 TO $6500 IN SOME CASES....FOR A BAL....

PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY CAN'T THEY GET $ 300 PER GIG?


Good point Deutch but 8x300 equal 2400, but lead singers don't get pay the same, they usually get pay between 500 & up per gig. Just wanted to enlightened you a little bit, but good point though!

Are u serious? The promoters don't pay the bands enough.

*Most bands now days are asking between $6000-7000
*Promoter gotta buy between 8-10 plane tickets, book 5 hotel rooms, feed the band members twice during the day
*Pay for advertising/place
*Pay for the venue/if u getting the bar you gotta buy alcohol

That's just to name a few things, and you got the nerves to say promoters don't pay bands enough money? At the end of the day after all the expenses if the party is not good only the promoter loose. Won't know band approach a promoter and say, you know what the party wasn't good let me give you some of the money back.

So get outta people face with that promoters don't pay bands enough.


Are you serious? You call that money for a band? If promoters did their jobs, then perhaps they would be compensated accordingly. If you keep doing Ti bals, then that is the result you get. All bands and musicians in the Caribbean are underpaid.
