[QUOTE="Max Warasila, post: 138723, member: 3845"] Re: article about roadies I dunno... I make somewhere 2k a year, working about 30 days for pay yearly. If I actually charged for all the hours I end up volunteering with my high school and local community theaters I'd end up around 14k. I only spend about 3 months of my time working on that stuff, leaving me the rest of the year for school work and other teenagery things (wastes of time, I assure you). Assuming I did it year round, that puts me in the vicinity of 40k. Most of this work is grunt work, and pays on the lower end of the industry spectrum. Two years ago there was a Q&A session at summer camp and pay came up. The particular group worked year round, on the road between 200 and 300 days a year, and all made upwards of 70k. They all work with the same production company most of the time. The highest pay in that group was 145k yearly, and yes, she was the one working the most days yearly. Maybe I'm being optimistic, maybe not - I don't know. I kinda have to be, right? [/QUOTE]
