    Free, meaing, the band don't have to pay out of pocket on top of punters having to pay to get in as well.

    What confuses me about the complaints is that bands already pester their mates to come see them play, all the time (and their friends have to pay in to those gigs too, right?). How many people are in a band, 4-5 people? So are bands really saying they can’t arrange for 2-3 friends each to turn up for a once-off event? With 150-200 people there, that is an atmosphere. Unlike when your mates turn up to see you play to them and 18 other people… you look more pathetic in those situations, even though it’s not always the fault of the band.

    It’s a bit like a raffle really. You generate some ‘door’ money, and then it goes to one lucky act. What’s the problem? Don’t enter if you think it’s unfair and book your own events which pull 150-200 people.
