First of all, thank you so much to everyone who sent in a topic or question for the “Peoples Choice” episode. 2 weeks ago, I asked for suggestions from Facebook followers on what topics they were interested in, and you guys came through with some awesome things to chat about. I continue to be blown away every single week when I see the amount of people listening to this podcast or reading the blog. I can’t tell you how grateful I am that you’re here. Here's the 6 topics covered in this episode:

1. Smoking vs. Non-Smoking venues and how to cope as a non-smoker.

2. Doing covers how they're written vs. your own version.

3. Work/Life balance.

4. Music vs. Entertainment

5. What are venues ACTUALLY paying you for when they book you?

6. Gear talk. Expensive vs. cheap and current setup.
