Never seen hip-hop acts live apart from Cypress Hill. Granted you can't get much better but this seems like fun and I may try and get up from Glasgow for it.

Yeah profits go back into future shows and improving the bands I can offer to Aberdeen and Scotland cos I'm now starting to deal with bands that are on bigger guarantees and asking for a percentage of my profits after break even point. On the odd occasion we make a decent bit of money it does help with living costs etc but we always make sure everyone is paid accordingly and everything is covered. Most of all I make sure bands have fun and enjoyed their experience.
I have no idea tbh. We offer a ticket split deal to all local support bands rather than a guarantee. We only do guarantees for out of town bands cos it's unfair to expect them to sell tickets. It gives them the chance to make as much money as they wish from any given show they play for us. This is the way many other promoters do it and it works well for them as it does us. All bands get paid whether it means we're out of pocket or not. On the odd occasion we've not been able to pay the odd band (local) but always book them again and give them the money they're due from both gigs. You can choose to accept what we do and play a show for us or not. Some bands have declined as they don't believe in ticket split deals but that's up to them and we're respectful of everyone's opinions. I must re-iterate, we are NOT pay to play. ALL bands get paid by us. We'll always cover petrol costs at least.
Have you seen them before? How's their live show? Be good to go mental for these guys as they have to drive to Manchester for a gig the following day! Let them leave Aberdeen with good memories.
Twisted Wheel - 80 sun-thu / 100 fri-sat 13th Note - 80 Pivo Pivo - 50 I think? Not sure about the price of others such as cassette/stereo/captains rest etc Sleazy's is a good venue though and probably about justified at 150
