Hey, we know the economy is tough. We all know someone who’s been laid off, and some of us have been laid off ourselves. The times are tough on everyone, including artists:
I hereby offer myself to play a concert at your church, your home (a “house concert”), small group, college, school, Young Life group, etc. anytime between now and the end of 2009.
My proposal:
- I will play for any amount, as long as my travel expenses are covered, lodging and a meal are provided, and I can sell merch(andise) at the venue.
- If the show takes place at your home, church, or otherwise, collecting an offering or entry admission would not be considered unwelcome, either.
- Make me an offer for a show in the amount which seems appropriate or financially feasible to your church. Again, as long as my travel expenses are covered, then the honorarium amount (if any) is of secondary importance.
If you or your church are even mildly tickled by this proposal scenario, please contact Charles (my capable agent) at booking@ericpeters.net to look at the calendar and to book a show in your town. If you know of other churches in your area/region who also might like to host a show, then you might consider teaming up with them to share/split the burden of costs and travel expenses. Current environ considered, my new mantra becomes “‘Tis better to play shows than not.” I welcome any and all help, so please don’t hesitate to ask questions. I remain humbly at your service.
My friends and I are working on a show, maybe two … maybe you can make it work, too? And if you know someone between your place and Nashville, maybe you go in together?
