For those who play out...what are some of your most memorable jobs? Here are some of mine:
* Brocks-Lexington-1962. Was in the back-up band when Jerry Lee set fire to his piano.
* Campbell House-Lexington,-1981. Lou Rawls used to bring his kids into town to shop for show horses. Sat and talked beside the B-3 every night for a week.
* Hilton Inn-Lexington, 1990. The Who stayed there. John Entwistle sat in several times. He was a better jazz guitar player than Townsend.
* Merrick Inn-2007. Strip club owner would bring in several of his dancers. They'd come to the piano, bend over and try to make me mess up (low-cut summer dresses, no "support").
Being a musician is GREAT!
