Tomorrow Monday on The BACK LOUNGE we’re looking at ‘SAYING NO’ ✋ We work in an industry where for the most part we put up & shut up, but is that finally changing & if so why? Fact- there has been plenty of crew shuffling this summer – it’s been crazy busy, whether it’s scheduling, cancellations or whatever restrictions we’ve had to endure, there is most definitely evidence that people are voting with their feet. Is this after 2 years of reassessing what is v isn’t acceptable or is it knowing with the shortage of crew, work is plentiful = less worry about leaving & finding something else. Our guest is beloved regular Maja ⭐️ tour manager, artist manager & founder at queerstothefront.com ✊ Dm if you’d like to join us Monday 5th Sept 6pm London.

How can we make it stick and is there a dark side to all this we need to be mindful of? We’re joined this week by special guests Malle Kaas and Erin Lynch from WILM (Women in Live Music) – they’ll be sharing their experience of life on the road. Join us, this is an important one. Wednesday 7^th July 6pm BST

Next week on The BACK LOUNGE, our subject is ‘PDs’, that mysterious bonus payment with the amount varying widely across jobs, and whatever you get, no one wants to pay tax on. How much do you get? What is everyone else getting more? Why are they subject to their own nonsensical quirks, normally dictated by someone who has never toured and never in anyone’s favour? Ideas for how to make £20/20$ stretch across 3 meals and a day off in Oslo/ Tokyo/ NYC welcomed. Email info@thebacklounge.org to register for the zoom chat. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting ????
Wed 30th October 6pm London / 7pm CET / Note clocks have changed in uk&euro so its 2pm EDT / 11am PDT
