I did one for George Bush, he wasn't there, but instead, sent a representative or some sort. It took place in a huge hall in Abingdon, MD, probably 1,200 people there, mostly lawyers, building contractors and state politicians. I don't know how much they paid to be there, but someone told me it was in excess of $2,500 a plate. All the time I thought I was doing well charging them $500 for the 45 minutes I was able to play music before and after the speeches. George Bush did, however, show up on a couple big screen TVs and they were yellin and screamin just like he could see them, but I knew he couldn't cause there was no camera to telecast our end, at lest I never saw one. It was a wild night, though.

Those were the days,
