p_michael_childers:  You should really, REALLY, talk to an accountant about this. The answer is going to depend on whether or not the band has formally organized and, if so, what form of organization (i.e., S corp, corporation, LLC) it is. Further, you'll have to look at how your income from the band is derived, whether as an employee, shareholder/member, or a subcontractor.
