best. In each room there should be WC/shower. In at least one room there should be an Internet
connection (WiFi or Ethernet/Cable). We’d love for breakfast to be included, as well!
Private : Should fulfill all above requirements. The promoter provides clean and comfortable
accommodation including a clean shower and towels for 7 people.
LOADING
It would be great if you could help us out by having a couple of strong people available to help us load in
all the equipment at arrival and load out after the show/curfew.

stuff. Unless negotiated prior, no commission from the sales will be paid to the promoter or any third
party.
TOWELS & WATER
These have a separate section just to stress their importance: when we’re on tour we don’t have many
opportunities to wash the towels that we brought from home, so we would LOVE IT if you could provide
us with at least 4 large towels for use before/during/after the show! Also, please provide us with a
minimum of 8 x 0.5l bottles of FLAT water on stage and several others (among other refreshments
fruit juices, coffee, rum&cola, German beers, Belgian beers, Czech beers, local beers, beers etc.) in the
dressing room!

suitable for a total of at least
6 people for the use of the band crew. We’d appreciate 2 x 220 V power
outlets, one fridge (or plenty of ice), a mirror and a trash can. Running water will be appreciated and so
will toilet and shower facilities. If this is not possible in the dressing room it should be accessible and

available somewhere in proximity to the dressing room. The dressing rooms must be guarded by the
promoter’s crew from artist’s arrival to the artist’s departure.
DINNER VERY IMPORTANT Serban, the bass player, and George, the tech/driver, are
pescatarians (vegetarians that eat fish) and Stefan is a vegan PLEASE PROVIDE THEM
WITH APPROPRIATE FOOD!
You can take us to a decent restaurant or provide us with a nice homemade meal that includes
vegetarian/vegan and/or fish options ( PLEASE respect our nonmeateating buddies ) or buyout
for
6 people. In case of buyout, please provide us with a minimum of € 11 per person in local currency to
be handed to the band at least 4 hours before stage time. If there is going to be buyout we would love for
you to provide us with directions and maps to restaurants where the entourage can find good vegetarian
