A local complex, with a dinner steamboat, outdoor bar, 5000 sq foot dance area and dining room wanted me to come down to check out if I wanted to play in the dining room. I went down Monday after a VA job. Buffet was on in the dining room. I turned around and left without even asking for the owner, who had called me.

Hey Russ,
Next time a 5000 sq' job comes up (especially the type money you get calls for) and you thumb your nose, send it my way - I love everything and all sorts of venues.
I played a nursing home the other day and a poor little old lady who couldn't even hold her head up told me how much she loved the Buffet song I played

I'm a bit surprised too at your comment. A person with your success doesn't do the type thing you explained

Man, I crawl, beg, kiss, etc - anything I can do to stay gainfully employed - it's a tough world out there.
