BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

• Under the new UK employment legislation (The Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003) effective 6th April 2004 we will require certain declarations from artists and/or their management or partner agencies, or hirers on commencement of their business with us.
  

• We operate as an "Employment Agency" under the terms of the legislation representing artists for the purposes of contracting them for temporary occasional work with hirers (i.e. the promoter or venue) as a performer/s in the entertainment industry.
  

• Representation by JBB Entertainment Solutions does not constitute employment with the Agency. All contracts to hire whether written or verbal or implied are direct contracts between the artist and the hirer, not the Agency.
  

• By entering into any agreement whether written or verbal or implied for the booking of artists or services through the Agency all parties shall be deemed to have agreed to accept and abide by the terms and conditions as described here and as amended from time to time by the Agency and as prevalent at the time of the making of the agreement.
  

• The promoter will pay 100% of the performance fee and any other fees relating to the event direct to the Artist or to the Agency on the day of the performance unless otherwise agreed.
  

• Payment will be made in the currency stated in the agreement - usually UK POUNDS, free of deduction unless otherwise stated in this agreement. Full payment details will be advised on booking. Neither the Agency nor the Artist can accept responsibility for cash payments sent by post. For bookings and financial transactions taking place wholly within the UK cheque payment is acceptable providing sufficient time is available to clear funds prior to the event.
  

• In the event that the Artists services are no longer required due to the event being cancelled or postponed for any reason whatsoever, we require 7 days notice prior to the date of the performance.  In the event that the booking is not cancelled within 7 days then 50% of the Artist's performance fee or other amount as may be stated in the booking agreement as being required to confirm the booking is payable following verbal or electronic requesting of the booking by the Promoter.
  

• The Artist performance fee as stated in the agreement is gross of personal income or commercial trading tax liability. Payment of personal income or trading tax liability is the responsibility of the Artist not the Agency. We strongly recommend that the Artist make provision within their own financial arrangements for the payment of any such liability and keeps such records of their income and commercial activities as may be required by law.
  

• Should the event be postponed the Artist will not be obliged to accept a re-arranged booking for the event at a later date and cancellation terms will apply.
  

• The promoter is to supply clear and detailed directions to ensure the Artist is able to reach the venue.
  

• No payment shall be made by the Agency to the Promoter for any direct or consequential financial loss incurred as a result of the failure of the Artist to perform.
  

• Repeat bookings from the same promoter or organisation and new bookings resulting from the artists performance detailed in this contract must be made through the JBB Entertainment Solutions Agency. In the event that bookings are made by alternative means a booking fee of 20% of the total artist fee for the performance detailed in this contract and for each subsequent booking made for the artist is payable to The Agency by The Promoter.
  

• Unless otherwise stated in the agreement the Artist will perform for the agreed number of hours in the Artists usual style.

 

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

As a minimum DJ's require 2 x Technics 1200's/1210's with +/-8% variable pitch control and/or Standard CD Decks (as agreed) plus a professional standard mixer such as a Pioneer DJM500/600, or equivalent with cross fader, line output faders, pre-fade gain, bass/mid/top EQ controls, headphone monitoring facility microphone and output monitor speakers. Provision of all equipment (with the exception of headphones) is the responsibility of the Promoter.

All equipment to be in full working order and spare head-shells / styli must be available in case of failure. Artists reserve the right not to perform if professional equipment has not been provided or is not fully functional. In practice Artists will usually do their best to provide a performance in the event that problems arise with the equipment unless they believe that doing so will be detrimental to their reputation.
