Gary, an increase in rates is well-deserved. I would worry that, in an industry that takes the absolute cheapest route possible (a recent Federal Report found out that many of the homes around the country don't even stock enough bibs and don't wash the ones they have often enough) that some places may opt for less expense. Around here, there are plenty of people who will play for $100-75.00 and even more that will play for less.

Of course, this area may be unusual. Around here the folks who play nursing homes really couldn't do anything else.

That's obviously not the case with the "Zoners" who play these venues.

Good luck with your price increase.
