Hey GutBucketeer, even worse is the professional who treats her audience like shit - leaving them standing outside in the rain because she couldn't turn up on time for the sound check, or being rude to them if they wander in by mistake or to just enquire about how long it will be.... whose musicians demand the very best (to the extent of turning down a newly tuned Steinway grand piano), but who then play like it was their first lesson at Kindergarten.... whose 'Green Room' requirements cost almost as much as their fee and then they leave most of it, complaining about it.....

I could go on for ages (and still be talking about only one person!!)!
