Thread: Tips for male (wookiee) performers...
Just wanted to share my thoughts. First off, yes, the female twi'leks in fleshwraps and leotards will always get tips. However, there are two things to keep in mind.
First, if you see such a twi'lek (or human), don't pre-judge. I have found MANY wonderful entertainers who greet everyone, talk to the band, chat, flirt, and flourish their hearts away, and **edit** well deserve every tip they get.
Second, do exactly what they do! Ok, so many my Wookiee ought not to flirt with the spacers, but everything else applies! I've found that if you greet everyone, ask about them (people love to talk about themselves), it really helps. Tell a funny story, ask about their job, or how they got hurt. If you play in one place, get to know the regulars, they will become regular tippers.
Just wanted to pass hope, I've found a lot of people giving up the Entertainer profession. It's certainly harder as something as, well, unsexy ^^ as a Male Wookiee, but you can still be plenty Entertaining, and get those tips.
