I did manage to see all of these replies but was unable to log in and reply sooner. It has been a great help, thanks!
Something kind of long term (hotel wise) has poked its head up, but the pay is not so great – based on what other musicians manage to get for a few hours’ set and also based on what was written in these posts. This latest potential hotel work probably averages at about a third of my hourly rate, but that is for three hours (not one)! Ie a third of my hourly rate paid for three hours of work. Will negotiate and see what comes of it.
Thanks for the advice.
