Dear teachers,

"If you get on the 'Today' show, you've got to get a band together, fly everyone in and put them up, and by the time you're done it has cost you fifty thousand dollars."

I think "get on" simply means appearing on the stage of the show.
I guess "fly everyone in and put them up" means taking the band to the place by plane where the show will be held and arranging accomodations for them.
If there are any errors, please teach me.

Thanks.
