I guess that, in large part, it depends on the taste of your audience. If you like, as Clinton says, "well placed discord" and your audience does not, then one of two conditions had better exist.
A) You had better have some form of income other than music or,B) you had better have deep enough pockets to keep you alive while you re-educate the audience.
I like some of the more complex chord schemes on some songs- whether I can play 'em or not is another matter- but I taylor my style to the job. If they want three-chord simplicity, that's what they'll get.
I may throw in one that's a bit more complex but thats all. There is a lot of stuff that never gets heard outside of a small circle of friends. It simply isn't saleable, given the present world economic and political situation. I mean, being hired to entertain at a political rally is one thing but I've never been hired to orchestrate a riot.
This has gotten rather far afield but the bottom line is, you have to play in a style that your audience will accept.
Otherwise, you won't be asked back.
