Speaking of bad gigs- I used to be in a group that got requests to play by
the local Junior League (the wealthy upper-crust society women in this
area.) They would always say "We can't afford to pay you- (scoff!) but it
would be really good exposure for you and I'm sure you'd get a lot of
business from it." Once or twice the director was actually suckered into
having us play for them. What an ugly, unappreciative audience! *Never* got
any paying business from any of these contacts.

What I'd like to know is: Has anyone, anywhere, ever gotten any paying gigs
as a result of playing for free for people who could well afford to pay you?
Just curious...
