ISTM that you can at least get band and DJ together in the following 2
tables:

tblperformers:
    intPerfID int(11) unsigned auto_increment
    name
    image
    logo
    website
    typeID

tblperformertypes:
    intPerfTypeID int(11) unsigned auto_increment
    type

If you have the types DJ, Rockband, Soulband etc. puttng them together
should be no problem. And if you add the types Concert, Orchestra,
Standup Comedian etc. and a freetext field in the tblperformers table
you should be able to get them all in.
