The band never really had a manager or a booking agent.
The bulk of their money came from touring. The band at a certain moment demanded
a guarantee of 50.000 $ a show. They decided it would be in their best interest
to formalize their relationship, and so formed "Gort Functions".
"Gort functions" reads the agreement, will provide all services and equipment
necessary for the public personal appearance of the CCR as singers and entertainers.
The partners included John, Tom,Doug,Stu and road manager Bruce Young.
The company is named after the robot in the classic movie "the day the earth stood still".
