Jam in Jubilee - Q&A Series
Live Q and A David Schellenberg
Posted by Jam in Jubilee on Tuesday, August 4, 2020
The fourth interview in the series was with David Schellenberg from The Good Will Social Club in Winnipeg. David offered really great advice - some of the questions that came up in the conversation included:
- What are some absolute no's in booking requests?
- Should all bookers be promoters?
- What's usually included in an email to book a night that's actually irrelevant?
- How much is the bands job and how much is the promoters job to get people to a show?
- as a booker, what do bands do that leave a lasting impression and make you want to bring them back to the space?
- Most bands are late for their load in times, but some bookers don't seem to care, how important is it to listen to the promoters timing schedule?
- Can I ask you to connect me with people better suited to what I'm doing in your community if you don't think I should be playing your space?
- Why do bookers ask me to find local bands for our show even though I'm not from their city?
