"It's OK, I'm with the band".
"The band drinks for free".
"She'll be waiting for you backstage after the show".
"You'll get paid right after the show".
"Of
course I'll help you with the gear".
"The other band said we can use their drums/bass rig/guitar amp/PA".
"We'll have someone there to take the cash at the door".
"We had nothing to do with your breakup! Your relationship was already messed up!".
"We're the headliner".
I know there must be at least a hundred others out there. Any takers?
