The audiences do NOT care how you entertain them, or what you use. It's a simple matter of heart and humility, combined with music and interaction that sells these shows. The tools are interchangeable.

Not many Arranger used anywhere. Seems Kareoke is the way to go. As said the audience doesn't care.

Did see my dream job last night. Went to dinner at the Pink House in Savannah and had a drink in the downstairs bar beforehand. BabyGrand sitting in the corner with a mic. Music 7 nights a week with the fabulous David Duckworth on weekends and the bartender said the during the week players are just as good. We were with friends so had to leave before the music started but will go back.
Goes along with Donnys post about a good pianist doing those variations.

I guess things are a bit different here. 80 percent of the NH entertainers here are playing arranger keyboards, about 18 percent play guitars and sing and 2 percent play an accordion and sing. Don't know of a single KJ or DJ doing the senior circuit in the Baltimore metro area, but there may be a few I don't know of.
