<description>&lt;p class="p1"&gt;City Winery's $25 Minimum: A Deep Dive into the New Policy and Its Impact&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;In this episode, we explore City Winery's recent decision to implement a $25 minimum on food and beverage sales for concertgoers at their venues. Jesse shares personal thoughts and insights on the policy, its potential impact on patrons, and the reasons behind this move, including the desire to support artists by giving them a larger share of ticket sales. By reading an email from City Winery's CEO, we get an inside look at the motivations behind the new policy. Jesse also discusses broader issues affecting live music venues, such as the challenges of booking talent, managing unpredictable ticket sales, and ensuring quality service. Additionally, the episode touches on how similar venues have navigated financial challenges and offers a balanced perspective on the implications of the policy for both artists and patrons.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Newsletter:  &lt;a href="https://jessehumphrey.substack.com/" class="linkified" target="_blank"&gt;https://jessehumphrey.substack.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Youtube! &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6AhUzWzyCrTgffuNlTjLG3jEmj5h4pmZ" class="linkified" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6AhUzWzyCrTgffuNlTjLG3jEmj5h4pmZ&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Support the Podcast on Patreon!  &lt;a href="http://patreon.com/afterthegig" class="linkified" target="_blank"&gt;Patreon.com/afterthegig&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;All links right here!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;a href="https://linktr.ee/jessehumphrey" class="linkified" target="_blank"&gt;https://linktr.ee/jessehumphrey&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;EMAIL US!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:afterthegigpod@gmail.com" class="linkified"&gt;afterthegigpod@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Instagram&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.instagram.com/afterthegig/" class="linkified" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.instagram.com/afterthegig/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;@afterthegig&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p2"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;00:00 Introduction to City Winery's New Policy&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;01:16 Personal Experience with Minimum Spend Policies&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;02:38 Reading the CEO's Email&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;05:00 Analyzing the Email and Menu Changes&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;06:22 Challenges Faced by City Winery&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;09:02 Impact on Artists and Venues&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;11:07 Case Study: Rockwood Music Hall&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;15:42 Balancing Acts and Business Models&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;18:14 Potential Solutions and Final Thoughts&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p class="p1"&gt;25:09 Service Quality and Final Wrap-Up&lt;/p&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Get full access to After the Gig at &lt;a href="https://jessehumphrey.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&amp;#38;utm_campaign=CTA_4"&gt;jessehumphrey.substack.com/subscribe&lt;/a&gt;</description>
