Conrad Where are you? I know you are speaking English as am I but I'm hearing with American ears. How much money are these musicians you are talking about making in US dollars?

My band is a trio and we have in fact cut or prices by 25 %. For a small group that travel mostly NY state we giged 38 jobs last year We ask for $ 325.00 ( L 210.62) when close to home. Each man get $ 100.00 (L 64.81) and the $ 25.00 (L 16.2) goes for gas. If we break out to 50 to 100 miles from home we up the price to $ 350.00- $ 375.00.
(L 226.82- L 243.02) I don't think we are over charging anyone. Are you talking about the local talent or a regional act like Seamus or Jed?
