As for the big wedding .. well, if Jacinda asked I'd work up a quote. It wouldn't be cheap, given the sort of work. I've never actually played a wedding gig before: nobody has invited me to a wedding yet.


She'd want really specific things, and those would cost a lot to prepare. It's not a typical background gig, and that would be $100/hr.


Depending on what she asks, I'd say it might be $500 or $1000 (to pay for the practice time as well).


But even then, I'm not in the mood to play.

Shouldn't have had the second cup of coffee. That's why I'm hyper (this is the best bit of a long rant). My sleep schedule is still nocturnal. I heard from Katya that David Russell commands $20,000 per gig. That's 'best guitar player in the world' money, and that's usually a 90-minute spot. Of course, he practices 4hrs/day, while even at my peak I only practiced 2.5hrs/day.

Oh, and the outfit is definitely femme. I'm not pretending to be a guy, and I'd think her crowd would be tolerant.
