The first time I saw an advance question about merch splits, I was shocked that it was a thing. I knew the entertainment biz could be shady, but goddamn!

It was part of the slow realization of how good I have it at the venue where I work, and I'm always pleased to tell an artist "no split, merch is 100% yours".
