Subject: Re: A Question for Gigging Harp Players

Hi Bob:

Maybe it's age related but we draw record crowds for our venue
_aiming_ our music for a 40+ (to 70 or so)crowd. Material?
Range of material? Venue? Here in the Comox Valley, I'd check
those variable first.

Mind you--many out of town musicians tell us that our club/bar scene
has a lot more live music per capita than they are used to from other
areas in our province--we're on Vancouver Island in British Columbia,
Canada.
