I play a private dining club 4 times a week at a rate of $75 each for two hours per night. Sometimes it will extend into a third hour, based on the number of patrons. Music is primarily instrumental, since the room is quiet and the conversation is low. No drunks. They want the music to be seen and heard, but not intrusive. Live about 3 minutes away, with little traffic and free parking right by the elevator. Occasionally get tips. Got a $100 tip recently for doing one Glen Campbell song.
