THe comments would only be "presumteous" or mean-spirited if Allen were simply playing music for the love of it, as many of us do. However, as he is charging admission to play before audiences in public venues, he is holding himself up to a higher standard.

As mentioned above by others, I also am not a big Allen fan, either of his films or his music. Some people like that stuff, but the music, at least, falls well short of professional in quality.

Your comment about encouraging those with disabilities is right on. I work every day with students at my college who need extra help and encouragement to keep progressing through difficult pathways, in spite of their chalenges. However, the only way we might liken Allen's situation to that of the challenged or disabled would be to state that either his clarinet playing is flawed due to a disability, or that his disability lies in his capacious ego.
