I came to find out, by over hearing the conversation, the band owner was paid $800 for the gig for 4 pieces plus me as DJ. He was paying the musicians, including his girlfriend, $100 so he was profiting $300.

He could of at LEAST tipped me?

Scott: Your right, I should of renegotiated with the owner, but I didn't want to make a scene in front of the crowd and during the event; I have too much class for that. I thought it would be better to discuss after the gig. But by then I had lost all of my leverage.
