Hi Mike, congratulations for finally coming out behind the lurker's wall. Sounds like your music performance interest (jazz, swing, R&B & pop standards) closely matches mine. I only wish I could afford to hop on a plane to Sydney to possibly fill-in for you on what sounds like is a satisfying restaurant-lounge gig. Though I realize that family commitments come first, I hope you don't have to completely abandon performing. Perhaps you can work out a deal to perform once or twice a month. - Good luck. - Scott
