Ok last night only two people threatened to beat me up over the 5 dollar cover charge at the Tom Breiding show. this is down from 6 at the Anthony Rankin show. Prety good...
Really. One guy said "f... you I'm not paying and you're not stoping me - let's go" Now I didn't back down, but can you imagine throwing a punch over a 5 dollar cover charge? He was ready but so was I. the absurdity of it made me not back down.
It completely astounds me that people don't respect music. They steal the songs on the internet, sneak into concerts, don't pay songwriters (see Springsteen's lawsuit), try and welch on 5 dollar cover charge. unreal!!!
I find music to be the single most important artistic act. It should be supported not taken for granted and exploited and not paid.
thank god for musicians!
Life is good.
