So we get asked to play an out of town gig in April with Canadian punks, DOA. It's only an hour away so we agreed cos the exposure would be good. NOW we're being told that in DOA's contract:
1. Opening acts have a "cap" on how much they can be paid: $50.00
2. Opening acts sets are not to exceed 35 minutes. At the 35 minute mark, sound will be cut regardless if the band is finished or not.
As if that's not dickish enough, here's the kicker: They want us to loan them our amps and drums!
Looks like Joey Shithead is living up to his name.
