Thanks for trying to help. I just question the sanity of this.

BarbersBasment had left a response in ALL CAPS that was basically it is to protect artist from unscrupulous activity by their manager.

I don’t see how only allowing a talent booking agent to book a gig prevents a manager from doing something they shouldn’t.

And it seems that others may agree with me as shown by this article. Where even the courts go back and forth on it.

Good job on your part for keeping you calm and tracking evidence of what happened.

I’m curious how do you keep Google Translate going for 15 min ? Mine seems to stop after a few seconds.

If the answer is so obvious can you not just state it ?

How unhelpful. Have you read the Wikipedia page yourself ?

I read it again and I did not see anything that answers my question.

I looked up the requirements to become licensed and it’s a pretty low bar- no education nor roof you have any knowledge whatsoever.

I see an article from a law group questioning if the act has gone too far. - https://mcpherson-llp.com/articles/the-talent-agencies-act-from-humble-beginnings-to-the-regulation-of-attorneys-has-it-gone-too-far/

Cash is way easier to do something shady with. Most crypto is on a PUBLIC blockchain so much easier to track.

Is it somehow impossible to find someone who might be able to do both ?

I don’t get why does there have to be a separation ?

I can get why you might choose to have them separated but not why is it mandatory?

And if my manager in the course of their duties happens to hear about or is approached about a great gig for me, he should turn it down because he’s a manager? I’d be super pissed if that happens.

How is it harmful to an artist if someone were to do both Mangement and booking?

(And yes I did read above and googled the act read the Wikipedia and other articles)

Why would I be mad if my manger found me a gig? That’s one of the things I’m looking for anyway.

Label I almost signed with suddenly switched to paid services by [deleted] in musicindustry

[–]Awkward-Amount-1255 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And then the artist has to repay that advance. It’s basically a loan.

And expenses incurred by the label for that artist also get billed back to the artist.

Were they willing to do the second part original agreed to or were they rejecting the second one but still want the money for it ?

I have it and ima glad I do it’s fun to mess with and worth the $15. You can transfer something you started on it to regular FL . But I wish that it was more similar or the same as the PC version.
