It’s ironic that one of the oldest clubs in Memphis, the World Famous Hernando’s Hide-a-Way, is also one of the most forward thinking. Having only reopened months before last year’s lockdown went into effect, they took advantage of the downtime. As co-owner Dale Watson tells us, “The silver lining in this stuff was we got wired up for live-streaming. Quality cameras, quality sound. So if the bands want to, they can live-stream on YouTube, and we’ve got a ticker tape that rolls on the bottom of the screen with their PayPal and Venmo information. We’ve had bands come in and make quite a bit of money through tipping alone.” Let that be a lesson to those viewers who enjoy music from home these days: clubs are prioritizing tipping their artists, and so should you.
