If you can't keep busy in this business, you're not researching your markets very thoroughly, or you're not doing a consistent job of promoting your talents.

Essentially, you play day and night, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, private parties, nursing homes, retirement centers, assisted living facilities, store openings, malls, any place where there's even a remote possibility of entertaining. I've been performing every year for the past four years for a million dollar diamond sale at a local jewlery store. It pays far more than any nite-club job, no smoke, no drunks and lots of attractive ladies who love the music.
