How Much Is Your Favorite Artist Worth?
Over on this I Love Music thread about this site that lists how much it costs to book specific touring bands, Al suggested someone should reorder the list by dollar amounts. I was just curious enough to do it.
The list was way too long to blog, but you can click here to download a massive Excel file with those artists ranked in order of how much it costs to book them.
If you had $50K to pay artists for a show, what would your bill look like?
Mine would look something like this:
The Stills ($15K)
Rx Bandits ($7.5K)
Andrew Bird ($7.5K)
Ted Leo ($6K)
Josh Rouse ($6K)
Mike Doughty (3.5K)
Imperial Teen ($3.5K)
Travis Morrison ($1K)
Spending pretend money is fun.
