Be sure tо аnswer аll three subpаrts оf the single essay questiоn below. Kümmerbünd is a relatively unknown musical group (who you may call “the Band”), which has agreed to play a concert at Club Now a popular local music venue (which you may call “the Club”), for a flat fee of $5,000. After the contract is signed, but several weeks before the performance, Kümmerbünd is suddenly catapulted to fame with the success of a new single, “Smell the Glove,” a cover version of an old Spinal Tap song. Kümmerbünd now has many offers to perform at much higher prices. Kümmerbünd calls Club Now and says that it will not perform unless the payment is increased to $20,000. Club Now at first tries to insist on the original deal, but finally gives up and agrees to pay $20,000. On the night of the concert, Club Now triples the cover-charge and sells out every seat, clearing $50,000 in profit. When Kümmerbünd asks for payment, Club Now gives the Band a check for $5,000. Kümmerbünd demands the remainder. The Club refuses, saying, “We had a deal.” Kümmerbünd sues. Club Now contends that Kümmerbünd is entitled to nothing more than the $5,000 provided for in the original contract. What are Club Now’s legal arguments in support of that position? Kümmerbünd contends that it is entitled to receive the extra $15,000 in compensation (i.e., for a total payment of $20,000). What are Kümmerbünd’s legal arguments in support of that position? Which side do you believe has the stronger legal argument and why?
