but Pele, I'm interested to know how you feel..
...do you think you would you treat someone differently if you were on the outside of this situation? I would guess that perhaps you might since you asked the question originally...? but am interested to know.
quote:They would be different, truth be told. Most certainly accidents can happen but as a promoter there is a difference between a performer injuring his/herself and a performer taking out my patron or my business.
and do you think the fact that you have "never injured an audience member or venue" is different to having had an accident yourself? I know the result is very different, but if you have technically done everything to avoid an accident isn't it just as possible that a frek accident could happen in a different way that may affect audience or venue?
Perhaps you only mentioned that neither of these things had happened to you to illustrate that you haven't had multiple incidents, but would those kind of accidents/experiences be different if you were hiring?
