eGrats
Now you can virtually put money into my open guitar case
Oh, admit it - you're excited too
As artists, we have our creative works, and we hope people love them and our music and dancing and paintings and writing etc enrich your lives (figuratively).  Almost all of us want to be your favorite artist.  But as I noted on a previous page, it's hard to make a living as a songwriter and a performer.  We also have mortgages and nurtritional needs.  We have pets and children.  We like being enriched too (figuratively and literally).

Buying music helps us very much.  By now, you've seen more than one link describing how you can purchase my songs and collections.  But if you're like me, you have your favorite bands and singers and songwriters and you always wish you could support them more.  You play their songs all the time and you rewatch their videos, and you may have paid for their music at some time, but no more than you paid for less favored artists in your playlists.  Maybe you see them when they come to town.  But maybe you live some place where they never get to visit, or you had other plans that weekend.  You wish you could do more.
.
Well ... if I'm one of your favorite artists, you can do just that.  I've created the eGrat (short for "electronic gratuity) program, which enables you to present me with a gratuity.  There are three ways to give me an eGrat:

I must advise you that this truly is a gratuity.  It's just like tipping your hairdresser or maid or waitron.  Dandelion Bloom Productions is not a charity or a non-profit organization, and your cannot write this off on your taxes at any level.  Also, it is not an investment per se - you aren't buying stock in my company.
.
Now - I do have some perks for you private rollers, whatever your level of gratuity.

Please note: All live events must be performed at the liberty of my schedule, and if they're private, it must be at a place I agree.  I have final say over both issues.  For all schedule and location issues, the higher the gratuity, the more likely my schedule and choice of places will be open.  Hey - I work for a living too!

Peace, strength, and good fortune to you - Rick
