If you cant get them to pay you a little for your time, offer to do it for free and if it goes well then you can talk about coming back another time for a little money. Not a lot, just enough to make it a little more worth your time. The big money will come down the road, you have to start somewhere. One thing that you have to realize with this is that your music venture in this industry is a business. Your going to have to work at it, and I mean work hard.
