What Are The Advantages Of Using An Entertainment Agency When Booking A Band For Your Event? By Paul Wolfe http://www. carteblancheinfo. com So you’re organizing an event – whether that’s a wedding, a charity ball, or a corporate function – and you’ve decided you’re going to have a live band to provide the music and entertainment. From here there’s two routes you can take: you can either source and book your live band via an Agency or book the band directly. In this article we’ll look at the advantages of using an Agency to book your live band. So What Is An Entertainment Agency An Entertainment Agency is an organization that specializes in providing live entertainment of all types to clients for events. So this will not just be bands for dancing to (commonly called party bands or function bands) but they’ll also supply steel bands, pianists, harpists, string quartets, tribute bands, jazz bands and more. Some Agencies also supply non-music related acts and entertainment – magician

The Advantages of Booking A Live Band Directly By Paul Wolfe http://www. carteblancheinfo. com In another article I looked at the advantages of booking a live band for your event through an Entertainment Agency. In this article I’m going to look at the advantages of booking a live band directly. Just for the record let’s define the meaning of booking a live band directly. It’s simply this: you find the band yourself (you saw them an another event, through a friend’s recommendation, or via the internet), you make contact by email or telephone straight to the Manager of the band (or person who deals with the bookings), and when you have decided to use that live band for your event then the contract that is drawn up is between you and the band. OK, if you’ve read the article on booking via an entertainment agency (link) then you’ll know that there is a cost involved in using an Agency’s service. So that leads us to the first – and most obvious – advantage of booking a band directly.

Why You Can Use Whether A Band Charges VAT As A Quality Filter By Paul Wolfe http://www. carteblancheinfo. com One of the most common questions I get asked when I quote for Client’s events – and especially private weddings – is something along the lines of: “Can you get rid of the VAT in return for cash?” Just so the record is straight, the answer to this question is always no – it’s illegal. If you’re a VAT registered company you must pay VAT on your service irrespective of whether you’re paid in cash or by cheque or credit card. But here’s a generalisation that few people in the industry acknowledge, but in my mind remains a fact: the bands that charge VAT are of a higher quality than the bands that don’t charge VAT. How Does Whether A Band Charge VAT Or Not Affect Their Quality? First we need to look briefly at a figure that Customs and Excise term ‘the VAT threshold. ’ Basically any business of any kind that turns over £67,000 or more in any 12-month period has to register for V

Why Should I Book A Band And Not A DJ? By Paul Wolfe http://www. carteblancheinfo. com You’re organizing an event –a wedding, a corporate function, or a charity ball – and when the formalities are complete you want your guests to let their hair down, have a great time and dance the night away. So there are two ways you can provide music for your guests to party to – you can either book a live band or a DJ. Now on the face of it, this decision would appear to be a no brainer. DJs have so many advantages over bands that it’s blah blah blah. So What Are The Advantages DJs Have Over Bands? Here’s a quick list off the top of my head: 1) A good DJ is cheaper than a bad band. 2) DJ’s take up less space than a band. 3) DJ’s usually set up quicker. 4) DJ’s have a ‘repertoire’ of thousands of songs. And yet at the end of the night which would you prefer to happen: the guests be shouting and stamping their feet for more, or politely say goodnight to each other and drift away. You won’t g
