Frequently Asked Questions

Why should we use an agent? Because we know this business! We know the bands, the DJs, and the entertainers. We interact with them on a daily basis, and they know that they will have to answer to us if something goes wrong! In a sense, we are a fantastic insurance policy! Having an agent also gives you freedom from having to know how many plugs a DJ needs, where the band will change clothes, and who will make sure that the performers have all of their tuxedos cleaned and pressed. We will do all the “dirty work” for you! All in all, we are your eyes and ears on the ground, and we know how to ask the right questions. We promise to be straightforward and truthful throughout the process, and hope to make this as enjoyable an experience for you as it has been for us over the years!

How early should I book entertainment? Of course, your entertainment options will be greater the sooner you begin the booking process, but we will be happy to work with you at any time! Even if it is at the last minute, we will do our very best to find you exactly what you are looking for and to make your event a complete success.

Is there an additional fee for using your services? The price that is quoted to you will be the final number that you pay. Our fee has already been included in this number. In fact, many entertainers will actually quote the same price to you, even when you are booking directly with them. Keep in mind, though, should you choose to take that route, that you will not be able to experience the luxury of having an agent to facilitate a worry‐free event! We are able to provide a “win‐win” situation for everyone involved - connecting party‐giving people (like you) with entertaining people (like them)!

Should I get “bids” from other agencies? Most entertainers are represented by multiple agencies, therefore they should all be quoting the same prices. Due to the fact that we are in the booking industry, as peers, many entertainers will be willing to work on pricing with us. We quote exactly what the band or DJ needs to make it happen. There are no hidden charges and no inflated commissions. Any break we get, we pass on to you, the client. The most important thing is to find an agent that you trust and feel comfortable with and stick with them. Long‐term, repeat clients and referrals are exactly the reason we have been in the business all these years!
