And what's wrong with entertaining yourself.Where I come from folk music is not all (yet) professional and not viewed by most as being an 'art', most people who play in sessions for example do so for themselves and each other. If other people enjoy it (and a lot do) its a bonus. Some people may call this a selfish attitude, but it means that you don't have to compromise what you like doing for commercial purposes. This attitude is probably the main reason why I still have the 'day job'.
