What would be the customary tipping for dinner at a music venue. Here is the example...

There is a deposit of $50 per ticket. The total cost of each ticket is $150. At the end of the meal, just prior to the performance, your account is settled up. A charge of $100 is brought to you making up the difference.

What should be the customary tip for such an event?

did they invite you back ?perhaps to enjoy the salmon special price on wednesday's?

I would tip a waiter in accord with the price of the meal, not including the entertainment. Estimation may be needed.

That was my thoughT as well just wanted to make sure what is customary. By the way, the place is Dosey Doe in the Woodlands. Great venue.

I’d tip the server based on meal cost

I’d tip musicians separately

That is a good place to see a show, and I have done tipping that way there. The food is pretty good, too.
