>I don't believe it's the caterer's responsibility to feed the musicians. It IS however the host's responsibility and when I play at a wedding I expect to get something - I'm only human after all and it feels really bad when everyone is drinking and having a good time and I don't get a bite, I need my energy for goodness' sake.<




I disagree completely.

In any other job, when would you expect to get fed?

Granted, in catering its often accepted that staff get catered for some way or another. but in any other job you have a canteen, bring your own lunch, or go out to eat.

As a caterer i simply give my clients plenty of food and there just happens to be enough to feed entertainers etc. I've never heard of a function that ran out of food. If they did, there was something very wrong.

I've also never catered a function where the entertainment wern't looked after. maybe your lot were simply cheapskates.
