let's see.... I don't really want to run the whole thing no more. I've been doing that for 12 years now. kind atired, but I'll get back into it if the $ is right  :)   preferrably a place that has 1 or 2 rehearsals, a service, and pays from $600. Some places have 8 am, 4 pm, 6 pm etc. OUTSIDE of the current prime time 11 am. you know ? we do here in Detroit. if that's the case, maybe there's one service of each time where you are too. kind apicky about this cuz I've been in the game a long time. if you can help me , I'll look out.

lol. hey thanks man, well see in town, I ask for that amount, and sometimes I ask for less, and sometimes i ask for more. One never knows what I will do IN TOWN  :)  I have played for 4 churches ALL DAY SUNDAY one time, cuz in Detroit you can do that somehow. (8 am, 10 am, 3 pm, 7 pm ) and wasn't tired, cuz they weren't paying that much. See but I had one rehearsal, and the other services were very small, so I didn' mind that either. Just kept the checks flowing you know ? up to $1300 a week with all 4. so it's either 1 church for $600  +  ( getting paid for the aggrevation along with skills, ) or a few little ones that should add up. are there church services with afternoon services that start in the afternoon ?

I never thought if it. what's the procedure please ?

Post by: sugeheights on October 07, 2007, 01:12:34 AM
how many churches are u playing for now? Are there many churches in detroit that can afford the 600 bucks a week? I know a lot of churches are cheap and dont wanna pay it. Also the population of detroit has been decreasing drastically for the last couple of years too lol. My homie in detroit uses ray daniels house of music to get his gigs lol. Oh yeah but itunes is great. i dont know how to set it up but you are a smart guy. It should take u no time. You can even sell your songs for 99 cents a piece if you wanted and the person can download it instantly. The money automatically goes into your account.
