Dr. Hank, the things you and the other folks are describing are why I've stopped playing shows. Nowadays the going rate for playing community dinner theater in the DC area is about the same IN CONSTANT DOLLARS (that is, with no adjustment for inflation) as I was making 35 YEARS AGO when I was a teenager playing in the local dinner theater's pit band.

That's pretty bad.

Sorry for all the uppercase words. Had to make a point.
