2. Its called a "binder" , I own a booking agency and I have been dealing with big name urban artists for 15 years. All major artist and agents want go see that the buyer/promoter is for real when they submit a performance offer , so normally a binder agreement is drafted wanting usually 10% of what the artist is asking for the show. If and when binder is sent, agnet goes to artist, tells artist he has a binder and then sees if artist is willing to do the show. The binder agreement should state that if artist declines said date, binder is returned or can be used towards securing another artist or buyer can counter offer, but if artist says no way no how, binder should be returned. Just a little "Music 101"

6. Yeah, what's with the "Ze"? I think that's more of the French side. I agree with above comment, haha. Americans sound a lot funnier when they speak German.

7. First - they are not Deutsch Marks because Graz is in Austria. Second - Austria used Schillings as currency prior to the current Euro. Fact-checkers may be a good idea...

8. Nice TMZ, but Graz is a bigger city in Austria, and Austria is not a part of Germany. And the Euro is our new currency, and the currency before was not the "Deutsche Mark", it was called "Schilling". And by the way, most Austrians talk English with less or no accent, because they are more used to it. We are a tourism country, not like good old Germany.

But I'm not going to think that you correct you're article, so what the hack. "Schöner Scheiß" as we say in Austria.

And third, People of Austria are called Austrians afaik. I know, it' supposed to be funny, but a little bit of truth would not be wrong.

12. Even though it doesn't show in some of the recent comments... Germans DO have a sense of humor. At least I have ;)

13. I know, the "ze"'s are supposed to be funny and normally your stories are, but not knowing about the difference between Austria and Germany and Deutsche Mark/Schilling and Euro just proofs again how incredibly crappy the general knowledge of other countries in the US is. You just confirmed all the bad clichés.

15. Graz is in Austria. Austria is not Germany. Austria never had Deutsche Mark, they had Schillings. Since 2001 we all have the €uro. Americans are so uneducated it isn't even funny.
