Booking bands is the Wild West of music promotion, where cash, gamesmanship, ego and relationships clash in the process of sealing a deal.

But it isn't as simple a just working out a fee. There's hotels, flights, catering, drum kits, video walls, billing and exclusivity to haggle over... and don't forget that nudity clause!

Then, even if that's all agreed, it might not stay that way because half the contract doesn't make sense, or the agent might just "forget".

Understand, no? Neither do we... 

We go again, every Thursday morning.
