I know that they will be there as they have money on it, and they know what time I will be there, and a basic outline of what services they are paying for. By the way, THEY ask me about a contract and deposit over half the time! Oddly enough, in over 30 years, only one person told me that the agreement had anything to do with the change. But, then she said the other guy was cheaper (I'm smelling the real reason, there) PLUS... get this: she then goes on to tell me that she "HOPES" the cheaper guy shows up, as she had no contract!!! I would have loved to been in the parking lot to see if he did, but... I was working at a higher priced gig, elsewhere. :dancing:

You said booker, now if I'm working through a booker there is always a contract.
No, we don't have Vinnies here, the only Toni's are girls. Now my regular job is based out of Boston, everyone there is a Vinny or a Mikey etc.. Steve V |

Since many of the agents (brokers) around here ste... oops, charge up to 35-50% or even more, I keep them to last-minute bookings only, almost all the time. Of course Toni's are girls or women. Or a guy whose parents were cruel.

In the Philippines...you need a contract even for Birthday parties or you might end up saying the very essence of the topic... "I am not a girl"
