The paper is just going to say that the band provided them and allowed their use. Sent the paper and invoice but be prepared for them to ignore it because the band provided the photos. Unless you can prove the band told them that they had to provide a credit, you may not have a leg to stand on. But the paper may still pay a realistic invoice to avoid negative press.

It all comes down to the tour manager of the headliner, he/she is the final level of approval. Even if the venue has an issue with you, if you can get a hold of your band contact and they can get to the tour manager…. You will be fine.
