Subject: RE: Success in the Folk World?????
Success, in my book. is having people enjoy what you do - especially when it comes as a bit of a surprise. I'd hate to have to do it professionally but I have the greatest respect and admiration for those people who travel from one end of the country to the other, not knowing whether they'll be performing to a packed house or a couple of drunks, putting up with a lot of hassle, often for a ridiculously small amount of money, and for what? To share with us their wonderful talent and send us home with a smile on our faces and the memory of a wonderful night's entertainment. I know I couldn't do it but I'm sure as hell glad that there are those who do.

Thanks folks.
