I noticed a recent post where the member stated he will play mobile events without a contract.
Personally, I would never, ever, for any reason, play a gig without a contract of some sort. I understand that everyone here manages their business differently & that is what makes us different & is why some clients choose one over the other. There are many reasons, but I wont bash or condemn anyone who doesn't use a contract but I think its extremely poor business & lack of protection for you & your clients. Additionally, you, nor your clients have any recourse or reference without something in writing. If there is a disagreement, a misunderstanding or mix up in what was initially discussed, without your policies & the things you agree on like, time, location, music, pay etc, neither of you have any way to resolve the situation.
Its unrealistic to me that ANYONE would go into a this or ANY business deal & not have a contract of some sort.
Lets discuss.... rationally & respectfully. Remember, each to his own & if someone else chooses to run his business different that you, its his prerogative to do so. You may not agree with him but its HIS business, not yours. Fortunately, you can run yours as you please just as he has the right to do so.
