We all have been warned about the importance of contracts in our careers as musicians and I’m going to guess most of us have suffered the consequences of not heeding those warnings more than once. And yet, I’m also going to guess, somehow, many of us STILL don’t get a contract for many gigs we play. Even a simple one, as todays guest states, could protect you from not getting paid or help you get your gear replaced when the drunk guy spills his beer and falls on it. Today our guest, Dave Ratner, covers the basics of understanding the value and terms in basic performance and royalty contracts so that you can protect your fanny when the red flags are fling.
