Got a new Job yesterday.

I'm now booking for Rise Records and Victory Records. I know some of you may not know these two labels but they are some of the biggest labels in my type of music ( hardcore / metal )

It's really tight I make 10% of every show I book and sometimes more depending on how well the show does etc.

We have a certain set of bands that we book everything for but we also book for like other labels and what not.

My first few assignments won't be very big seeing as I'm just starting out booking but in a month or two I'll probably be booking for the Devil Wears Prada, Emmure, Beneath the Sky, etc...

IT's really ****ing tight I pretty much just sent on ******* / my phone for a couple hours a day and make money. In about a month or so I'll be making near 500 bucks a week. 500 dollar guarentees...10% for every show etc. That's only for like the biggest bands we book a regular week will be like 250 or so.

Streetlight Manifesto is under victory records. I really like them, they're not metal or hardcore though.
