I'm a whore. I can be bought.
One night a guy offered me $20. NOT to do it again, and I told him he was outbid!

DonMDon as always, the best advice and a good story to boot!
I also try not to repeat but I believe the guy paying the bill has the final say. If I have to repeat I'll make a joke out it, a little friendly banter with the audience or at least the one making the request. It helps to put everyone else at ease, to show I'm a friendly approachable guy and not inflexible.
Would you rather be asked to repeat or be background like we talked about in another post?
