This app could work, I could see it actually catching on with the washed out casino/town fair circuit bands and artists, where rich people and companies would get a kick out of being able to click and pay for them to come to their events/parties.
But Fyre's idea of the industry moving to an app for legitimate large club/music hall/arena artist booking would never have caught on with all the complexity in major artists booking, especially scheduling and desire to travel at any given time.
The app would basically be "Click to order this band and then it's a such a big process with back and forth that the band's agent will contact you to discuss". Well booking agents already do this minus clicking on some company's app.
