Frank, actually the saloon goers in Northern Ontario can give anyone a run for their money when it comes to making life miserable for a performer...the difference is though, that when you take the gig, and accept the money, you know what the rules are ahead of time. Funny thing though, as you pointed out, in Britain they're more likely to listen if they think the performance is worthwhile...and you don't get requests for Dylan, Neil Young or James Taylor.
