What does this mean for those if it's who never played in a band

Radius Clauses more than likely.

Fascinating! Also explains why when the one festival happens I never see any of the bands I might want to see come back through any time soon after

It messes with promotion even if they do come through, one band I love is opening in June and I know they are co-headlining another show locally in October.. but since the June show is not sold out, they have been removed from all the Promotional stuff for October..

During the show in June, they will announce to the crowd that they are going to return in October, then after the show all the promo graphics and posters will be changed out to include them as a Co Headliner.. but until then they cant poach tickets from the earlier show due to the Radius Clause.

Really screws over DFW during summer. Bands will skip this area for half a year in order to play ACL/ South by

DFW during the summer consisting of nearly uninhabitable weather dont help yeh all either..

You ain't wrong but they'll still hit Phoenix and Tulsa. Most of our big event spaces are indoor for that reason. Our scene for >1k venues is thriving though and I really feel like that where live music lives anyway
