Does anyone know how much musicians who play at Irish Feis competitions (step-dancing) are paid?
From a reliable source, you could be looking at €20-€25 per hour.
You should name your figure first, then negotiate.
My reliable source, who would have played for Michael Flatley’s kick out, was paid £3, for his day.
His (my reliable source) description of those heady days sounded like an out of body experience.
He also gave me to believe he could and did, read a few pages of his favourite book, while playing.
Not between sets, but while playing.
