I can put up with the no tips (I never use a tip jar)



Put out the tip jar, man. Everybody in LA does it. When they see the tip jar, a request comes with cash. That place I mentioned is down at the beach where you have to pay six bucks for parking. We never get less than $25 or so which is enough to cover the parking for all of us but many times we get $50-60. This is still a paid gig though we're not playing just for tips. We always use the tip jar in public but not for a private function. Private functions are 50/50 whether we get a tip so if it's a $500 gig we might get a C note with the check. Or not.
