I only played occasionally not every other week as some folks here on the forum . I have to admit that only one place did I deal with the same AD m ore than twice. Every other place had a new one that would call and say I'm so and so the new director at so and so and I see your name on a list and wanted to see if you would be available on such and such a date. Around here they change AD's as often as you have lunch. I'm in Western Colorado. The old folks loved all the old standards I played. The AD's were 25 to 30 years old for the most part and I soon figured out that they would rather have a three chord guitar player instead of me.
