i've done some odd gigs but i have to say i've only had one bad gig. i was hired to play harp and bouzouki for the toronto si=ons of kerry meeting at the dora keough, i got there and they dicided they didn't want me. so i ate a snack.(i had just come from busking) and went out side. there was a liquor store neaqr so i set up on the street. i had agreed to play a hour for fifty bucks, but all the guys going into the meeting seemed to stop at the liquor store and they pretty much all threw me a buck of two. in a hour and a half i had a hundred and fifty bucks and although when i started i was pissed off, when i broke to go home i had forgiven the sons of kerry--butn i wouldn't do i gig for them again without advance payment.

i've had good weddings. for people who looked poor i have played almost for nothing on occasion--they were gratfull and poor young people in love usually leave one with a nice bouncey feeling afterwards
