How much do I have to pay them to never play "Hold My Hand" again?

Jerry Yeti always makes me laugh, and this recent commentary on how much it will set you back to hire various bands to play a show (your college, birthday party, backyard fiesta, what have you) is no exception.

I find it interesting that Hootie and his Blowfish companions cost more than Death Cab For Cutie (almost double what DCFC is charging during their so-called Springtime clearance sale).

Hootie? $100,000? Really?
Jerry's commentary is here, and the original list is here.
