i'm tired of getting $10 for the entire band for gigs in my town. apathetic musicians here say "i play music cause i like to...not for the money" therefore we continue to get screwed. bars now don't charge covers...get three bands and give them 1/4 of the drink profits which you trust them to give you. a bar with 100 people only yields us $10 for the whole band. they used to (20 years ago) give you 3 sets for 1 band to play and you would get $300-$400 a night. am i just greedy and i'm in music for the wrong reason? the music brings in the people. :mad:
