I think we know what the law is now and that, I believe, was the question in the first post.

Another point to consider. You never know if the people that pay you cash are going to deduct your show as some kind of entertainment expense. They'll maybe want a receipt. Saying that you don't give receipts because of taxes might come off a little un-professional.

I believe that practically, hiding, or not declaring income may come around to bite you in the behind. Nevertheless, whatever may happen, it's the law to declare your income.

It is hard to respond to what I believe is a complaint about putting words in someone's mouth. The complaint itself seems to be putting words in my mouth. Any future responses I make to that, if any or if solicited, will be PM'ed
