not getting paid properly at gigs

[BloodStar]

It is always pain when you deal with people with no fair-play thinking. I think it is more about personal approach. If the guy dont wanna pay you, he will always have arguments to do so and you will never see your money. No matter if he lost or earn.
I am sure if there would be a will from from his side he would arrange a new date when all the engagements will be solved.

Anyway, I wouldnt blame him that he is a bad promoter and his party end in the hole. You know what. This can happen to everyone, and when it happens it is just on promoter how he deals with money-lost and what priorities he set on all the payments he still needs to deal with.

Nobody likes no-receiving money for the job, but it can happen so next time be safe with contract in your hand and in case of int.national gig you always can have some deposit stated.
