As some if not all are aware my VERY IST EVER " professional" &original band is going in tomorrow night to lay down &record 2 songs for a compilation cd that gets released worldwide to coincide with the 'Viva Las Vegas" rockabilly show in Nevada in easter 2015.I've been asked as to whether or not i want to be paid by the hour or song.

As this's my VERY 1ST EVER recording session i'm more then happy to do it for free as i feel (either rightly or wrongly) that it's expereince that you could never get anywhere else&feel it's invaluable to me.

My dilemna&question is: what's both the cons&pros of either getting paid per hour or per song?,

I have NO IDEA as to HOW much to ask for either payment per hour or per song!.As the singer&her bass playing husband have been burnt before they're insisting i choose either payment option!,

What to choose/do? :(.
