    Hope that means that Copeland may do a second leg of In Motion

    Hello - insider here. In general, festival appearances are a higher guarantee than a headline show / tour package. Individual dates can make the band more money, but they also come with higher expenses.

    Let’s say you’re an artist booked to play Riot Fest at a middle spot on the poster. They’ll pay you a flat fee of $30k. You’ll still need to pay your own team (managers, agents, crew) but the band doesn’t have any financial risk.

    Now let’s say you’re on a headline tour and hit The Metro in Chicago. Usually it’ll be a guarantee vs deal, so throwing numbers out $20k vs 80% of ticket sales. This means you’ll get paid 20k regardless of ticket sales, but if it’s a sellout crowd and 80% of that is $40k then that’s what you’ll walk away with. However, that doesn’t include venue cuts, marketing budget, the venue crew that you have to pay for, on top of the standard manager/agents/crew cuts.

    TL;DR: Festivals are a a higher guarantee and require less work from the band but have a lower ceiling. Individual dates are higher risk but higher reward.

    Was considering going to the Anberlin/The Almost tour but Aaron just confirmed it's him with his acoustic guitar and a kick drum. I've already seen that type of shindig from him. Wish it was a full band type thing.

    Oh... that's kind of disappointing. Don't really have any interest seeing Anberlin with Matty and don't know the other opener. May sit this one out unless I can snag free tickets.

    Was gonna say all this, given Ive never contracted with a festival. Thinking of Coachella, a restrictive radius clause should result in a higher rate. Also their merch cuts must be backwards given they control all merchandise.


    Source: hired a lawyer and booked a few tours when i was 18. Stopped after a year cuz that shit was stressful

    no it doesn’t…that lineup isn’t worth $600. it’s a great lineup but this isn’t on the size or scale of a major festival, it’s at an existing amphitheater and doesn’t provide much outside of a few activations and the music.

    I guess best way to look at is like...are one day passes more or less than seeing Noah Kahan at the same place if he headlined one night? Lucy Dacus...not sure she commands that price but with a strong undercard, I think it'll do fine.

    I would think it would be a TSSF/ND co-headliner no? They usually play the same venues when they come through on their own headliners.

    The neck deep logo in the teaser is the one from that era. Probably not happening but I'd love if this was LNOTGY/TSSF Self titled 10 year tour

    if it’s not a co headliner couple album play tour, hopefully it goes through riot fest and they do the albums there

    Might still be in play, we’re in the 10 year range for the TSSF self titled too.
