Re: rate of pay around the country.

jlmer,
The only suggestion I can offer for the type of service you provide is to check with other local performers - primarily acoustic acts. If you know of someone who plays small venues (i.e.-coffee houses, little pubs), ask them what they make for what they do. Then you can set your rates accordingly. Just remember to factor in your experience as either a way to charge more or less than acoustic acts. You don't want to undersell yourself, but you don't want to price yourself out of gigs either.
