1) Any cancellations or notified changes must be made at least 30 days prior to the date of event. If you fail to cancel your booking before this date you will be charged the full fee.

2) Booking deposits will not be refunded under any circumstances.

3) Paying a booking deposit for your event or function is a 100% binding guarantee of contract. Any non payment of a deposit could allow me to change my work schedule without prior notice.

4) The hirer is responsible for any damage to the equipment caused by any person at your event. You will be charged for the full cost of any repairs and expenses incurred during the repair period. You will be advised of any damage as soon as it is caused and notified of the repair cost as soon as possible.

5) I do not tolerate violent, aggressive or abusive behavior from anyone under any circumstances and also reserve the right to terminate my services at any time should my personal safety be under threat. I do not take responsibility for ejecting any unwanted persons from any venue. You will be advised of any problems that I may have in this respect with any of your guests.

6) In the event of fire, flooding, public disturbance, terrorist activity or any other threat to the public, I will not be responsible in helping in any way or evacuate any venue or building where I am performing or working within, unless the fire regulations for the venue specify otherwise. This would usually incur a vocal announcement.

7) All final payments are due 40 days prior to the event.

8) I will need a minimum of one hour to enter a venue and set up prior to the start time and also a similar time allowance at the end of the night to pack up. This time can be reduced if access is good and I am familiar with the venue.

9) If you are booking other entertainment (e.g. Disco, Comedian, etc) as well as hiring me, please consider the amount of space available for the event.

10) I reserve the right to refuse to continue any event prior to the start should there be insufficient floor space which would not allow the audio and lighting equipment to be assembled safely.

11) I will not be responsible for any damage or loss to private or public property caused by invited or uninvited guests.

12) All equipment that is used is checked prior to arrival and has been fully tested for safety by a qualified electrical engineer. If I am linking my equipment within a fixed in-house audio system, i reserve the right to refuse to do so if the equipment is considered to be unsafe or liable to cause damage to any component linked to it. The hirer is liable if post inspections prove that damage has been caused by faulty equipment other than my own.

13) It is the responsibility of the hirer to make sure that there is an adequate provision of electrical power within ten metres of my set-up point. I require a minimum of 2 x 13amp outlets dedicated purely for my equipment (not in the form of an extension lead). Any damage caused to our equipment by an inadequate power supply or power interruption is the responsibility of the hirer; a site survey can be carried out at an additional cost. The hirer/client is fully responsible for any damage caused to the equipment caused by the use of noise limiters and the subsequent cut off and reintroduction of power without our consultation.

14) All bookings should be taken on the understanding that the venue is in possession of the necessary entertainment licenses. We are not responsible if the venue is found to be in breach of the terms of their license.

15) I and any assistants will conduct ourselves in a proper manner throughout the attendance at the venue, and will respond to the Management's requests as to volume, sitting of equipment and, or any other reasonable requests.

16) I will not be liable for non-fulfillment of this contract by the venue Management, although every reasonable precaution will be taken. In the event of the client seeking compensation, I will be liable for a sum up to and not exceeding the contracted amount.

17) I reserve the right to alter any or all of the above at any time. E&OE.
