If someone in the audience is offended then it is their job to talk to the offender not mine. My job is to entertain people and try to facilitate everyones, including the sillies that want to play along having a good time so they'll come back and pay my wages again. There's an awful lot of stuff in this world that is more pressing in terms of needed solutions than harmonica players in the audience. You have to remember that most of the gigs for diatonic are in bars and people go to bars to drink. I know of no one whos judgement or personality is enhanced by the consumption of alcohol. Kind of like standing in the middle of a busy road and expressing amazement that there are cars zooming by. What did you expect? fjm
