What I ended up doing is telling him that 350 should be started out instead of waiting for the 8 weeks. He agreed, and, as I expected, said "Business will slow down next fall and if we are up front with each other, you will understand that and be willing to accept 325 on those slow periods." I didn't comment on that part as I only plan to work this much through the summer anyway.

In essence, the intial thoughts and advice from Kilith and Alan was helpful, thanx.

In the fall, he will most likely put an ad in the paper or may ask me for suggestions as to who may be available. I know three others that have minimal equip., personality, and song selection, but still draw the same ole crowd that every one else does for 100 - 125 dollars.

He'll be happy, I'll get more sleep, and the world goes on.
