“Americans don’t choose to be victimized by mysterious fees, changing terms and pages and pages of fine print.

there are live music clubs everywhere, big and small... If I wanted to play every night I could with out an afterthought... maybe he is too much of a "pro"... the "scene" does work a bit different here, but not so much that you are locked out...
