There are normally a whole bunch of open mic nights that people can play at for free. Of course, that depends where you live. I live in New Port Richey, FL, and it's less than an hour's drive to Tampa. So there are plenty of open mic nights to choose from. If you live in east nowhere, and there's no city within three hours of you, and you want to be a musician and play out, you've got a problem.

(In Tampa, the best open mic night is every 2nd and 4th Monday night at La Casa Dolce, hosted by JPF members Steve and Leigh Humes.)

And I'm with Jerry. I don't pay to play.
