Should I get a booth or worry about a performance space? Can I use a microphone? Is it okay to "hat" the crowd for tips? I know every situation is different, but some general guidelines on how it's done would be great!00000

I have seen rates from $250 to 700 per day. then get there early, draw the crowds hat the crowds and get paid at the end of the fest too.00000
