[Dixielandjazz] Playing For Free and Other Sorrows

[David Dustin]

When I was an adolescent, word was that whores did it because they loved it
and hookers did it for money.  Perhaps there is some of each in all of
us...well, maybe not all of us (sorry, Tom).

We don¹t take $60-per gigs 3 hours away, but we don¹t get the BIG fees that
much either.  And Tom is right and Steve is right: by their standards we
play ³garbage² music. And we are paid commensurately.  But we sure as hell
LOVE IT.

Carol, you can play in my band anytime.  (Could you, ummm, send a picture?)
