I played in pub sessions every week for over twenty years until my hearing let me down seven years ago. Not once did I ever think I was doing it to entertain/perform. The lads and I were doing it for ourselves, bar the odd raucous Whiskey In The Jar, etc. The landlord thought we were more than OK and we were provided with no pay but endless beer. Apparently, we filled the pub on a Friday night. But we were doing it for ourselves. If anyone felt entertained apart from us, it was a bonus.

Anyways, as for what entertains/engages me, I'll be having me midweek bottle of Malbec this evening with me Somerset Brie and Wookey Hole cheddar, Mrs Steve will go to bed early and I'll put on a late Beethoven quartet played by the Smetana Quartet from the 1960s. It's wot started me on classical fifty years ago...
