| BOOKING POLICY If you would like to book LMDC, please keep in mind a couple of basic things. 1. We are not doing this for the money. If you are a person we do not like, who thinks they can buy anything cause they are loaded, or anyone we have no respect for basically...you can all go to hell. We don't need you. We are fine as we are. 2. We are doing this for fun. If we agree to do the show then we will be looking to have a good time with our friends, family, ho's, basically anyone we want as long as they are of age. Therefore we will not be doing convention parties nor political rallies nor product endorsements unless agreed to by ALL of the LMDC band members. Please do not get us confused with 'music for all occasion' bands or as entertainment for your next psychotic cruise. We will bite you then. We have been know to carry rabies and dum dum fever. 3. We like 'beverages' a lot. Really. Dead serious. No joke. Yes, as you all know, musicians sweat a lot onstage...especially the riddim section who have to endure makeup as well. So it is BAND POLICY that leads us to DEMAND free 'beverages of the adult kind', to ensure a proper performance and establish a'festive' mood setting. So no free booze, no band. Simple. One exception. You give us enough money, and we'll go down to the liquor store and get our own juice. 4. The Hokey Pokey. You put the right cash in, you get the right show out. If we decide to play your friggin party, then let it be known that we have a minimum that we will NOT be discussing online nor quoting on the telephone. We are not Geico. We don't look at others' rates and quote you. IF we agree to do the show, we will talk about which and what directions we want to pursue. All the monies made will be put towards costumes, sets, and general shit...so the more money you throw at us, the bigger the fiasco. 5. Let us be heard. For a band this big, you will need some proper amplification to get us heard over the roaring masses. Therefore you will need an adequate sound system that meets our satisfaction before we agree to play. Just like you would not send a Yugo to tow a yacht, you cannot book a show for a full 10-piece orcherstra with not enough microphones and a crappy 6 channel mixer that has only 150 watts. Get real...spend a lil cash and we will sound great. Or buy our soon to be released single and play it loud! 6. Space Oddities. We know space can be a problem sometimes, thats to be expected with a band this big, but just the same, think about where you want us to play before you even ask us. Common knowledge dictates that we will NOT fit in a tiny club such as the Big Horse (no offense to them). Just think about how many people there arein the band and multiply that by at least 2 for the width (thats 20 feet at least geniuses). 7. Don't tell a soul. The more noise about us, the bigger the draw, the sweeter the deal for everyone. We love to have an audience cause we love playing. We do not wanna play for just the bartenders and waitresses. Even though we will put in our two cents and bring both loyal followers and promote as heavily as we can, we ask that you also get our name out in a poster or flyer or whatever. It's your party too you know. 8. Groove Line. Any questions regarding anything not specified here, or if you are a concert promoter, please email us. All SERIOUS inquiries will be attended to. Please give us your contact info so that we may discuss shit. The end me thinks...for now at least. |
