I don’t agree with selling tickets ever! This is just an easy way for the promoter to sit back and do nothing, if you’re not going to promote the show don’t book it. Most promoters know what bands promote their shows and what ones don’t so the promoter should know who to book and who not too. If it’s a local only show and your asked to sell tickets kick the promoter in the nuts, you shouldn’t need a promoter for a local only show. If it’s a national show and your asked to sell tickets still kick the promoter in the nuts for agreeing to pay the tour package $5000 and he now wants you to sell tickets to cover his ass. FUCK YOU!!!

In regards to getting people to shows:
The biggest problem with getting people to shows is there are way too many local only shows with bands people really don’t care about. Why any local band wants to play their city 4-5 times in 2-3 months baffles me, and these are local only shows. If it was a show with Suffocation, Nile, Vader or so on then play them all but too many bands play local only shows every other weekend and wonder why 6 people show up?!?!?! Well they just saw you play the same set last week and the week before that. One good local Death Metal show a month is good enough for any city, make the people/fans/friends want to see you. Bands that have to text/call/email all their friends to come to their show should be shot fucken dead. Who the fuck wants to play to their god damn friends when you can do that in your practice space?!?!?!??!
