Somehow I think it's you seeking the "approval and respect" and are willing to pay anyone and everyone for it....LOL

Paying for Karma......Hmmmmmmmm. LOL So i am guessing if the plane crashes...no tip for the pilot? Perhaps one should toss a few bucks into the cockpit before the flight....just to make sure.

I ALWAYS tip a musician BEFORE he plays a request... That way, I am guaranteed no clams, and he knows all the words..!

well done Scottyee

just curious, would you say you make a living as a one man band entertainer only?

would you say that it's very important to be in the San Francisco Bay Area?

thanks & have lots of fun with your new fantastic keyboard

I cant stand cheap ass people.


can't believe the bullshit and negative crap that people are posting here...I can see why the OP isn't even replying.

Grow up....you and your ridicolous tips about tips. Tipping a courier? a doctor?

Yeah you need another doctor for sure....

Putting someone down for not tipping UPS is way out line, especially calling them a cheap ass. That is downright boorish.

Been playing in clubs and restaurants for 55 years and have refused to use a tip jar the entire time. It's just a thing with me. I feel the jar, bowl...whatever, looks cheap, and I should gladly play requests as part of the job.

Of course, the horse farm owners often put $100.00 bills in my pocket, and I don't rush to return them (LOL)!

Then there were the times drunks stuffed bills into my drink glass and I tried to drink them (in a less than totally sober state)!

Most working musicians I know are aware of how hard service people work and are more generous than the average customer.

Then there's my doctor. I don't tip her with cash...I send her flowers.

But, hey, SHE'S HOT!

My UPS driver Ken delivers stuff to me all the time. Yesterday he delivered my Tyros4. I told him about this post and asked him how often he gets tipped. He said he does get offered tips, but refuses them. Deliveries are what he does. No tip necessary. He wouldn't take one from me but is coming over this weekend to check out my Tyros4. I think I have a keyboard lurker here.................. -charley
