Response to VFW

I used to do a show for the "Moose Lodge" on the south west side of Chicago and my min. was $50.00 an hour with a three (3) hour min. But, again, that WAS my min. then. Now I'm at $65.00 ph w/3 hr min. But doing shows for organizations like the Moose, VFW, or any kind of non profit lodge you want to gave them some sort of a special rate. I would think anyway. Besides, theres other business that you'l get through them.

Talking Run For The Border

Live in Nogales, Az., a border town 60 miles south of Tucson. Doing show's Wed here in Nogales @ Scotty's Bar (14 yrs) 9-12, Fri @ Esplendor Resort in Rio Rico (5 yrs) 9-1, and every other Saturday in Patagonia @ The Wagon Wheel Bar ( 2 yrs )8:30-12:30. All venues are within a 20 mile radius and I try not to over saturate the area, since i have very little competition at the moment! I have been in the business for 16 years, and using Hoster since 2004.
