Being able to play a wide variety (and great number) of songs only makes MORE people happy.
If that makes me a Jukebox, then put a nickel in me - I'll play a song for ya!
no, playing a wide variety and great number of songs doesn't make you a jukebox. Many of us here including me can do that, but we didn't learn all those songs to be able to be a human jukebox, we learned them because we enjoy them or want to broaden our musical boundaries. just playing only what is requested as close as possible to the recording makes you a jukebox, and that WAS meant to be derogatory.
if you want to do that, fine..if you can make a living at it, fine..just don't call yourself a musician. call yourself a human
jukebox.
