DOOR MONEY” To focus on door money means one is paying so much attention to the amount of money they are making at the door they do not consider there is much more profit to be made inside a venue.

About This Quote

Door money is the amount of money a promoter makes from selling tickets they have on hand to promoters, not from ticket sales. In most cases, they will give you a percentage. When they have a large chunk of tickets they don’t want, they will allow promoters to buy them from them at a fraction of face value. The artist or band gets a cut of that money and the promoter takes a cut. It is not unusual for a promoter to give a door person an additional 10% of the door money, if it’s a good show.
