Accommodation debt freaks a band out (3,3,9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bed and breakfast

'accommodation' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'debt freaks a band out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'debt'+'freaks'+'a'+'band'='debtfreaksaband'
'debtfreaksaband' with letters rearranged gives 'BED-AND-BREAKFAST'.

(Other definitions for bed and breakfast that I've seen before include "pension?" , "temporary billet" , "Fed up after retirement" , "Common hotel arrangement" , "Accommodation, hopefully temporary" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
