Support your local musician!
The audience needs to be educated on what we do to prepare for a show. This is not something we just woke up one morning and started doing. It took years of practice to build confidence, write good songs, train our voices and to create the music. It doesn't just end there. We practice every day. Singing, writing and playing. Before a show sometimes the nerves set in because we want to do a good job for you the audience. We practice either the day before or the day of the show.
When you see a solo act playing think about this. First, it is our job, second, there is gas used to get there and home, wear and tear on our instruments, vehicles and equipment, Third, we are probably playing for free so we depend on your tips to make a living, Four, yes we love doing it....but do you love your job enough you would work for free? Some of our sets are 3 hours long. Please, don't think just because it looks easy that it is. If it were then every one could do it. :)
So, should you tip? Yes, if you are enjoying the music. The amount should depend on how mud you are enjoying it.
Please support your local musicians....they are playing not just for themselves....it's for you too.
