Actually, at Isenfir's last event, the autocrat and cook both paid
full-fee; we're just weird that way. However, this varies all over the
known world. I am often offered reduced fees because I am a musician,
and I almost always pay full fee anyway, because I can afford to do
so.

There's a huge file of discussion on this topic in the Rialto Archive,
if anyone wants to see a lot more of it.
