    75k for Foxworthy, I can't believe we payed him that to come to A&M last year. This year we had Martin Short(?) and Mark Curry(15k) for first yell.

    List of people I'd like to see for next years First Yell:

    Bill Mahr probably wouldn't be accepted by hard core/corps(pun) or old ags.
    Lewis Black 15-20k
    Joe Rogan 10k
    Jon Stewart 65k
    Jim Bruer 20k
    Kevin James 50k
    Mr. Show (David Cross and Bob Odenkirk) 15-17.5 k
    Paul Rodriguez 35k

    Wow, remember when Nikka Costa was supposed to be the next big thing. Now a fraternity can get her for a party for only 5k.

    Bob Dylan only 75-100K? Seems like he should cost a bit more.

    Damn, I don't know how often some of these bands get booked and what % of the $$$ they end up with, but if you get booked fairly often and get a decent cut, you can make a nice living as a one hit wonder band:

    Better Than Ezra: $15-20K
    American Hi-Fi:$12-17K
    Blessid Union of Souls: $10K
    Bubba Sparks: 12K
    Crazytown:10-25K



    Some good values:
    Bone Thugs N Harmony: 15K
    Cypress Hill: 30K
    Dexter Freebish: 7.5K
    Edwin McCain:10-25K
    Eve:30K
    Good Charlotte:7K



    Overpriced:
    Coolio: 25K

    It only takes $20,000 to book Andy Dick?

    I need to take issue with FSU's SGA, then, for booking him for Homecoming 2001. They got $1,000,000 to use on homecoming last year, and it sucked. Dick was horrible and was booted off stage after 15 minutes. None of the other activities were that special, either.

    I want the other $980,000 back!

    Overpriced - Tool at $200,000 plus.

    They are booked for a date here in Tallahassee in Early November and are a pretty good band, but $200,000 for a show? That's ridiculous.
