This was a topic that was hotly debated months ago and some misinformation continues to be put out there.
A deposit is NOT required to access Lourdes’s roster and touring schedule. Just go through their screening and they will email you their entire roster (sans their top tier celebrity level UTRs) as well as add you to their mailing list for updated rosters and tours. The only minor inconvenience is the emails do not include rates, so you’d have to inquire.
What they gate (for some reason) is their website. You don’t get access to the site (with the same exact list as they send through email) until you complete the first appointment.
The only thing going the deposit route gets you is immediate access to the site. Which is pointless because you’d have to screen anyway before booking.
So just screen with them. Its not difficult and you’ll get all the info you need without paying a dime.
