C'mon, be serious! If you start playing for Flea, then every venue will expect you to play for Flea. Then none of the rest of us will ever get a chance to play unless we also play for Flea.

>>> Playing for Flea is ruining the business for Everly one.

what exactly were you playing for flea, and why would you not do it again( is it perhaps that he won't hire you again?), and why did you play this for him in the first place?
Or...were you possibly offered flea as payment and noticed later that your local super market won't accept flea as payment).
Or do you have trouble with your spelling and you won't play for free ( anyone would probably admit that it sounds rather similar, and I know a number of people that got confused between "r" and "l"...

this reminds me of the outdoor gig i did where the mosquitos came out and we were helpless. i watched several get fat on my arm while playing a tune to involved to slap the little buggers. But Flea? no way man, i'm professional.

If we play, but don't get paid, how will we ever be able to survive in a Flea Market economy?

To flea or not to flea; that is the question.

Makes as much sense as the other thread. I'd rather play for Flea than for Free anyday.
