First, you must be one of a kind. If all you do is imitations of famous people who made it, better get a day job. When I lost my singing voice, that was that for the folk music. I still do performances as a Maine humorist, but, no more Thousand dollar gigs. Performers such as Gordon Bok, JedMarum, Seamus Kennedy do stuff that not everyone can do. So, if they want Jed Marum, they must be willing to pay Jed Marum. He is the only one qualified. I used to tell a story to people who wanted me to drive 200 miles for $50.00. The fable of the oats. "If you want top quality, fresh oats, you must pay top dollar. However, if you can settle for those that have already gone through the horse, they are much cheaper."
