GIGGING as a looper questions...

[KkstrtChby@aol.com]

I am curious to hear from all you loopers who gig with your looping talents...

I want to know the average set length and how many sets per performance you do?

I am aware that this will and can vary...

I am personally looking forward to non-rehersed improvisation on my bass with my EDPs... usually solo but occasionally adding drums/electronic drums / and or percussion ... and possibly an occasional vocalist.

I live in Montana so the music scene is tough to get clubs to even hire live music (especially original) let alone something so far from the usual country singer on a stool...

I am trying, and want to assess what and how looping gigs have worked in the past for all of you from the business side of getting the shows in the first place. And then what and how to serve once you've got the gig...

So to summarize my question... How long do your gigs usually last? What time of day? what do you try to charge? How much do you usually actually make? etc...

Thanks,
