So, the band I'm in have been asked if we'd like to play at one of the UK's largest free festivals in 2015.
The organisers have stated to us the following:
"We would love to have you guys but obviously it comes down to cost. So what would it cost us to have you guys come play our festival".
So what's a fair amount to respond with? We'd be travelling some 400 miles round trip to get there. We are NOT greedy. But nor do we want to come across as complete mugs. We do this for fun. We'd be happy to have a night or two away and play some music to new people. Is it reasonable to expect the festival to cover all our costs (fuel and accommodation) ??
Opinions sought, and welcomed. We normally play nearer to home, and normally for modest amounts.
