Is Playing For Free Always “Shameless Exploitation?” [Parts 1 & 2]

[Part 1.] My full-time job for over a decade has been performing as a freelance musician. Of course, I want people to pay artists and musicians [A TON] to perform live. So… when I saw this petition going around on Facebook saying we should force the Minneapolis Parks & Rec board to pay artists for every free outdoor concert, no matter the size… why did I initially feel like I disagreed with it? 

[Part 2.] I recorded my chat with Nate Babbs [professional drummer] to see if there was something I was missing.
