Wow guys.. I honestly didn't know it was was so bad & certainly not
back in the 60s-70s-mid80s? We'd easily make $2-300 each a night
but we had a superb' booking agent. Also thank God I had a 2 talent
life with dual-careers in music & Commercial Art career out of NYC
that made my music $$$s suck!.. Truly scary you'all!!
a thank'filled tee'...
p.s. of course I was not locked into one genre, plus if it was fun and
it paid, I did it...
