No not what you think:)

We seem to be getting an epidemic of Entertainers cancelling out on customers--who ring us in desperation for help:eek:

Just had a customer on for tomorrow night --fortunately I can cover it myself:D

But a lot of them have booked cheap, got let down and cant handle a higher fee either because the function ticket cost is based on a cheapo entertainer or they cant bring themselvesw to admit they were stupid in booking cheap and have to pay twice as much--ego problem;)

I suppose we shouldnt grumble really--its all business.

Excuse for the letdown---2 days notice--im going into Hospital for a hernia operation--yeah right !:bang:

More public awareness of this is what's needed. The problem is how to raise public awareness. I feel that are lot of entertainers are trying to 'educate' people the best they can but until some major development happens (regulation ??) I feel it will be an ongoing problem.
At least it saves you having to watch Friday night tv - think of poor Rob :D :D :p

Actually there is a prog I want to watch on the History of American Folk Music, will have to try and catch it later.

We do include this verbally and in written quotes--I think the message is getting through to a FEW people slowly---;)

When considering our quote please be aware we are receiving a disturbing number of calls from distressed customers who have been let down badly a few days before their special event by cheap Callers.

We have had 2 this week.

We pride ourselves on reliability over many years in the business and have never let any customer down for a booking.

So, do you get two every week, or do you change it to suit? ;)

Had one this week ( im covering tonight) so we alter the quote details as the weeks go by.

Its really quite amazing-its rare to find a week where there isnt at least one-OFTEN TWO but then we have a very high profile on the Internet and we advertise that we can help with last minute bookings.
