Post Body

My old roommate's band asked me to tour with them for 7 days. They're a local band that is starting to make bigger moves to get more recognition. It's everyone's first weeklong tour. They say they're not making any money on the tour, but know I'm taking time off work (paid time) and taking my free time to learn the songs, so they're offering me $25 per show, with $175 for the week. Is this reasonable? Should I be asking for more? I'm still trying to figure out what I'm worth lol.

Edit: They're also not asking me to pay any tour expenses.
