FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
lessons: $33 for 45 minute lessons. Purchase in groups of 3. Use then when you want. Performance: Varies widely depending on distance, the number of musicians needed, rehearsals required, costumes needed, when during the week and time of day etc. Repeat business is discounted. For example: If hired for a solo weekly job in a restaurant on a Tuesday night, out by 9:00, for three hours of variety music in Phoenix. I would charge less than $200. For a one time thing in Flagstaff for a late Friday night 3 hour job requiring a trio in costume for a specialized theme at a corporate event with lodging required, I might charge more than $1000. I give steep discounts for daytime, 1 hour shows for retired age events at non-profit residential places. The short answer is this: we'll just have to talk and see if it will work for you. I'll be friendly and won't be pushy.
