walking out

I would only play the gigs already booked and only if they can't find a replacement. 8 weeks is more than enough time.

I'll cover the gig in August if they need that, after that gig I'm on my own.

Correction - after that gig, THEY are on their own!!

You can't leave it open-ended like that. If you want to leave the band, you have to do it on your own terms - not on their terms.

Committing to remain "until they find a replacement' allows them to drag their feet indefinitely - should they be inclined to do so. Give them a finite period of time upfront: either play through the next scheduled gig, or for a certain number of weeks. Period.

What they do beyond that point is their business - not your concern...

agreed.....i don't know that i'd be willing to give them more than a month.....a fair compromise would be to offer up as a sub for a flat fee,around 30% more than your normal cut...that will give them incentive to find a replacement at the normal rate,and a band member has to kick in his share of expenses....subs do not

If someone ever gave me that kind of notice I'd be overjoyed.
