jeremy c Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Most cover bands I know get like the odd $25 to $50 per person. But that's in bars and stuff ... That's what the pay scale was 35 years ago. The cost of everything has gone up nearly ten times since then. And clubs are getting away with this insult to musicians. This thread is very aptly named. Free download of my cd!.

jeremy c Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Mattulator, you should try to get gigs in Sacramento, it's only an hour ride away for you. And meanwhile, you get to live in a beautiful place that is less expensive to live in than the big city and much more pleasant. That's got to be worth something. Free download of my cd!.
