Assuming a 4 - 6 hour new years eve gig, how much did you make?

[madjim- with the Lord]

Bryant,
I was off this past new years eve and spent a wonderful evening with my wife alone at home. We had too much fun!

If I had worked New Years Eve I would've charged my ususal $300 in town or $350 out of town for a private party.


I appologize for the late response.

Good for you, Jim. I was kinda hoping for that too, but we both ended up at two different places, one was 300, and one was 350.

A good payday is hard to walk away from. This was the first New Years Eve I've had off in more years than I can remember.

That's pretty good Billy. I still only get 350 for new years and 200 for karaoking at the regular place we do all year long. 1/2 mile from home and all equipment always all set up. 8pm to 1:30am on new Year's Eve.
