Hi All.
I played St Valentines Day at a small restaurant, my first paying gig
with the magic organa. Met a fiddle player who has a blue grass band.
He love my accordion. He asked if I had any Italian or French music on
the accordion, as he is always being asked to play his fiddle at
Italian restaurants and people wanting to hire him to play French music
at parties and such. He does not know any Italian or French songs. He
said that he would recommend me and my accordion. Now I wish I had more
Italian and French Music. I guess when I get these calls I'll have to
turn them down.
2 weeks ago I received a few calls from pubs asking if I could play for
St Pat's day. I had to turn them down as the only Irish tune I could
find is Londonderry Air (Danny Boy).
I would gladly pay for a smart card that had separate Banks of Italian,
French, Irish, Caunto, Cajun, etc....music. I think we have enough
German music.
How about it Fred, Stephen?
Anyone else have a comment on this?
Just my 2 cents. Mike
