Pretty Cool.
Hard to read but it looks like they got $50,000 plus 75% of the gross sales after $95,000? That is a pretty good payday for 1975. Dr. Hook only got $10,000 a show according to that song. I guess the 75% isn't is big as I thought. Capacity is 18,000 and Tix were $7.00 & $6.50.
$6.75 x 18,000 = $121,500
$121,500
- 95,000
$26,500 x .75 = an additional $19,875 for a sellout at avg. ticket price.
I forget why. So long ago. I had the chance to get literally hundreds of canceled checks/contracts from the ABB archives. Stuff like Gregg's payments to his dentist. It was fascinating but I didn't have any money at the time. Hopefully it all ended up in good hands.
Concert is not to exceed 4 hours! No long jams in Cincinnati. Actually, probably had to do w/paying OT to staff at the venue.
