I don't what sort of rider they've got, but they could go for a bigger cut of liquor sales and keep the ticket prices lower, and still go home with
the same amount of cash.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

Ya Cleveland was $30 for tix but that included "service charge" I mean theft from ticketmaster. The show was $22 with $8 service charge.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

When you're makin' money everyone wants a piece.

I won't pay that much for most bands, but I will for a few, including DKM. I want those dudes to get rich cuz they've earned it.

I'm talking about seeing them in 1997 - 1998 era at smaller clubs. The good old days. I am still a diehard that thinks Al should have stuck with the
Bruisers and Miek with DKM.

I'd be willing to fork over $30 to see DKM.
Only thing is here in Phila, after the service charges and shit it would be closer to $50.
I like the band allot and wish them all the success / earnings possible.
They look to be doing well, but I doubt they are ever going to be rich to the point where you see them on some shit like cribs or something. Even with
record sales, what's a band make off of each cd sold these days? I thought the percentage to go to the artist wasn't too huge...

I would pay $30 to see the Original DKM but not the newschool one. As much as I dont like DKM at this point in their carrier if you're an artist and
do it full-time then you should make enough to live off of. If $30 a ticket is what they need then so be it, I wont be paying it though.
