"commitment, sincerity, and beliefs"
I don't disagree with that Bill, but I can't help noticing there's more and more benefit concerts for older folk musicians who haven't got two pennies to rub together after a lifetime of giving pleasure to people with secure jobs and pensions. I'd like to see good pros getting it all and I'd like to see them realising early on in their careers that if they don't think of the money as well as their life's work and passion, they too will end up needing benefit concerts.
I value them too highly to wish that to be their destiny.
