A gig isn't booked until, at the very least, you have a signed contract.
Even then... (small claims court isn't worth it, right?!)
Anyone here play wineries? Anyone here get jerked around by them about the pay?
Michigan has a ton of them... Apparently, none of them have any money for live music. Oh, wait... "We found someone to play Friday for $100". Okay then. Good luck.
Tips for booking?
Are there any sure bets (or best bets) these days?
I think many of us have read the various threads on The Gear Page about issues with bar owners. The craigslist posts from bar owners about gigging musicians have been enlightening, for sure.
The difficulty is partially that venues want professional musicians, but then apparently don't realize their value.
/rant... for now
