To be honest the money isnt a big deal for us at all,as long as we arent out of a pocket then we are happy to play to people that have bothered wanting to come and see us.

We played a gig in the Westie wich we had put on ourselfs and i organised 2 support bands.

In the end we ended up giving the 2 support bands £100 each and walking away with around £200 ourselfs after paying the PA.(may have been you Robin )

Anyway my point is fuck the promoters off and take matters into your own hands then that way theres no danger of being shafted
