its just super fucking lame when you go to see if you made any door money at the end of the night and some short douche with bad breath running sound at Sammy's Patio tries to tell you that you only brought two people through the door when i personally smoked weed with more friends out behind the club than he claims we brought through the door to begin with, then tells us to go screw with no pay.
Exactly what happened to us, there were at least five people off the top of my head at this show who came directly as a result of me personally and my efforts to advertise (three of whom we ATE WITH and who helped give business to the restaurant, but apparently one of them died in the subsequent minutes as our entire band supposedly only brought two people).
The system of counting who came to see what band requires a lot of trust between the promoter/doorperson and the bands, and is usually asking for trouble unless everything is done right. Although my biggest issue with this show wasn't even that system, but that they didn't even TELL US this was how they were keeping track until the end of the night, while telling all the other bands weeks before. Putting the band that traveled the furthest and has played out the most at that kind of disadvantage is ridiculous, especially when they put out the most promotion and word of mouth about the show (over a thousand views on this thread plus an e-mail to over two hundred addresses on our mailing list, in addition to phone calls and putting it on our website).
