Notes
  • $7,500 guarantee plus 100% over $15,900 on gross potential of $24,000, plus $2k for lights and sound.
  • Data on tickets sold via Raker 1976. According to Stewart 1977, the IC Bureau of Concerts made money on this show. He also reports that the gym can hold a maximum of 4,000, though implies that it is configured for 2,800 capacity for a George Benson show. The gross potential specified in the contract suggests that they had the room in the more capacious configuration for Jerry, i.e., 4,000.
