  • A professional player does not cancel after the date is CONFIRMED.
  • A professional player is willing to take directions from the leader of the group.
  • A professional player is able to handle rejection without having a sense of embarrassment or entitlement.
  • A professional player views all behind the scenes business as CONFIDENTIAL, and expects his or her business to respected as CONFIDENTIAL as well.
  • A professional player listens carefully to the expectations of the bandleader and knows when it is appropriate to refuse a gig offer.

  • A professional player shows interest and enthusiasm in the music that is being played.
  • A professional player does not drink on gigs paid for by private clients unless invited to do so.

  • A professional player discusses payment issues prior to the gig, and confirms them.

  • The professional player agrees to speak favorably of those he or she has worked with or not speak about them at all and expects the same treatment.

  • A professional player does not solicit a bandleader's client for his or her own gigs while on a gig, and after, as a matter of courtesy discusses it with the bandleader first.
  • A professional player thanks fellow musicians, the bandleader and as appropriate fans and venue representatives prior to leaving and is sure to leave the studio or venue in the same condition it was when he or she came.

There are, of course, exceptions to many of these rules, but in general musicians who decide not to follow the vast majority of these points will be penalized as follows:
First offense:  A Dirty look.
Second offense:  An even dirtier look, and private discussion on the matter...
Third Offense: Ass being banned from any performance situation that I have any control over.
