MaddMatt, you have started one hell of a conversation. Like Flip ( I believe), I have been in the business for 10 years. This is a business. I am very good at it and people say so. The area I live in has many companies. However, the ones that charge to undercut, are slow fading over the horizon. The reason I make good money and have been at my locations for a long period of time, is because I pay attention to business. For instance, I will interject a song with 140 BPM if to many ballads are being sung. I want the audience to get into the show, not fall asleep. Do I sing all the time? No, but, I do work the audience to get their temperature. I am doing business.
I do weddings, pool parties, BBQ cookouts, birthdays and the bars. I would not get all these shows if I did not do business. Nobody wants cheap. Everyone knows you get what you pay for. Thanks Flip.
