Eddie,,3x3/4 is standard for most clubs in US.
Private parties pay much more but band needs to
be pretty much top notch.Rate is "ex" amount of $'s
for "ex" amount of time.In other words,whatever is
agreed upon.Then if band plays over the agreed amount
of time they usually get bonus.I'm glad we don't go that route
anymore.Those tippsy women get kinda loose

This is very humorous to me.I just can't
imagine bingo and country music in same club
at same time.Is this a common thing In UK?

Its an old working class thing scotty, they used to and still do in some cases go down to the club on a Saturday to watch who ever on stage have a game of bingo and socialize.
