seeking appreciation from uneducated audiances leaves even the best virtuoiuuuuaauooso(spelling??) frustrated. I used to busk for money, I started by playing classical, beautifull stuff...I earned hardley anything...untill I played outside liquer stores very poorly the same out of tune garbage riffs over and over, especially songs that are depreessing. I quit seeking appreciation from fools long ago.
In college (ages ago) I used a certain song as "panty remoover", worked almost too well, Stairway to heaven. Corney but it worked. Even if I played it poorly it worked better than anything great that I could play at the time. I could sit there playing her original stuff, beautifull things,..with no response,...a few bars of stairway...well you get my drift.
