Another day Another Rip off.

I'm not sure I would be able to tame this temper mine in that situation. I would have ended him there and then. It aint right and it aint fair. He took H away from his family and messed him around. That to me is absolutely disgusting.

People like that don't care one inch for the artists or the music, they're just out to make as much money as they can, without actually having any business sense what so ever.

They tempt artists in with promises of decent fees, then realise they can't afford the ammounts promised, and instead of being honest about it all, they just run off and hide without a care in the world.

well like i said I had played for this guy before plenty of times
but i was very worried about the money BEFORE i went and very nearly didn't go.
but in the end I couldn't afford to just sit at home
I need that money it's the mortgage , the leccy bill etc etc ....
I CAN'T just sit at home just to prove a point, and i figured that maybe my show of solidarity might help once i got there.

It's very different to the Creamfields thing earlier on.
there was no worry about that, not until I got home and realized that they hadn't paid and weren't about to either.

So It's just so hard to play this game of russian roulette with promoters
sure you can say "you shouldn't have left the house without a deposit"

but put yourself in my shoes for a minute and you'll see why I did.
and i DID get something. so i did the right thing

And the credit card thing?
yeah but, come on, Fraud ? Seriously ?
I think I'll come off worse If I was to do it and get caught, don't you?

It's just crap isn't it?
However Spiro has had his beating so I have just discovered
and Peter has contacted me offering to " negotiate "
no apology, nothing humble like that, just saying he'll call me tonight
ON BOXING DAY!!!!LIKE I REALLY WANT TO SPEAK TO HIM ON MY DAY OFF!
he can piss right off!

GRRRRRRRR

However Spiro has had his beating so I have just discovered

He get an actual beat down or has his promoter pedestal been kicked from under him?

Either way, one way or another I hope you get the money you were promised mate. F*ckers drive me mad.
