There was a guy who was in retail. He was a clothier who decided to try his hand at booking. He served chili, and he used to make announcements between sets that there's hot chili on the side. I mean this is a small club. And I remember seeing Roberta Flack there.
Different people arrive at it for different reasons.
Yeah, of course. I wouldn't want booking to become just simply a business and nothing else. So instead of getting lost in a world of agents and managers, my starting piont is always the music and musicians. I think of what I would like to hear myself. And education is a strong component of my booking.
