Back a few years ago when I was in a trio we were playing a outdoor gig. After it was over and we were packing up a person came up to me and asked if we would play their outdoor gig. I said sure but then she said they had no budget for music.
I got a little testy, looked her straight in the eye and said, You are offering no money that means you think we have no value, if we have no value then why are you asking us to play. She said Oh and turned and walked away.
The following year I got a call from the same lady about the same annual gig. We took it and played for our full asking price.
I guess she found out you get what you pay for.
