However Spider Rock can, on behalf of the band, looking after a booking, if this is what the band wants, but obviusly we can't grant about the result.

A result achieved for the band is a result achieved for Spider Rock. Spider Rock will negotiate on behalf of the band every little detail, from the very beginning of the negotiation with labels, agencies, promoters, venues, artistic directors and so on, advising the band how to operate and helping in "reading between the lines" of the dials, suggesting "alternative proposals" and so on. Then, basically, Spider Rock Promotion is the one who "pesters the life out" on behalf of the band. Is it true?Yes. Spider Rock does this, too. Who is the staff of Spider Rock?Many of us are long-dated musicians, journalists, label managers, promoters. The staff is constantly growing up. The project, with its truthfulness and its "noble" targets, is attracting "insiders", real followers who had never gained profit on the band's shoulders and on their own have been wronged by a maybe incurable but not unbearable system. Does Spider Rock Promotion spend and/or earn money from the maybe obtained dials?It's not sure Spider Rock obtains a dial to the band. However, Spider Rock analyses the proposal, tries to find out if it's a hoax, taking anything for granted, and works to obtain an honest proposal, at least. Then, Spider Rock will follow the whole thing together with the band. Spider Rock won't earn commissions, and will never ask for any kind of rights from the band for third parts dials. Instead, we will provide evaluation for the maybe expected burdens. Does Spider Rock provide legal aid?Yes, absolutely. You'll have the needed assistance from paralegal experts, in order to understand in details all the clauses of a dial, or to commence legal proceedings. What does Spider Rock ask to the band?We want that each band knows Spider Rock won't work FOR her, but WITH her. The band must realize she is PART of a scene. The bands of our roster must cooperate, team up and fight all together. Let's speak about... money!Spider Rock, as a no-profit association, claims expenses, whose extent is established year by year according to the last budget. Further expenses, such as advertising, will never be of Spider Rock competence. Spider Rock does already have preferential channels, so many services that normally would request contribution are already included, and will cost nothing for the band. For particular activities, and at the instance of the band, Spider Rock will provide marketing advice for advertising campaigns, even if we are a bit reluctant in supporting such workings. end faqRelated articles: |
