We do suggest a donation of $10-20 in the tip jar, if you can swing it. Pay what you can to support the music you love. Don't forget: the venue (whatever venue is hosting our shared experience) and its staff are important parts of our cultural ecosystem. Without them, we don't have outlets for dancing and listening together, and inviting folx outside of our regular influences into our community to keep it alive and healthy. We need to patronize the venue, and we need to tip the staff. **Check out the new seasonal mocktail, Chai-der** $1 of every chai-der sold benefits Integral Care’s food pantries in Austin helping community members transitioning out of homelessness.
