It's a pity that they are 90% likely to learn the hard way in this situation.

In this case it was 'Twisted Ape Promotions'. Further ones to look out for:

Chemical Works Live
MDK Productions
Scottish Music Network

Nah my mates went to play with them and as soon as they got there, the guy opened the door with a basket and just said; '60 quid right now, or your not playing'. They hadn't sold 60 quid in tickets so they walked offrefusing to pay the extra.

Of course they advertise on myspace, how else would they find young naive bands to take advantage of?

Aye, i dont mind selling tickets if we are playing an RFR or DF gig because you are supporting a top quality act. When it comes to 4 bands that nobody ahs ever heard, i cant be assed shifting tickets.

Another one of my college mates said when they played a twisted ape gig, they played with a band of 12 year olds who sold 1 ticket.
