  1. Groupmuses are not free.
    They are free to host, but a minimum payment of $20 is requested from every audience member, all of which goes to the musicians.
  2. Groupmuses are as much concerts as they are parties.
    During the musical performance, the audience is expected to be respectfully attentive.
  3. Anyone can host, in any space!
