[QUOTE="Karl Winkler, post: 73480, member: 255"] Re: Do I Tip The Band? Lots of good advice from everyone. I just thought I'd throw a few thoughts in there since I run a working string quartet and we do 25-30 weddings per year. We used to get tips more often, but now it's only once or twice per season. I think the economy has had something to do with that. That said, it is certainly always nice. I would say no musician would be offended to get $20 or $25 on top of their cut of the gig. If the band leader is really awesome to deal with and you want to tip him separately, then $100 would be more than generous. Like others have said, we always like it when we are treated well and not asked to go through the kitchen and things like that. Generally, we have always been treated well but once in a while...
