This is unfortunate. The world needs more Jersey Mike's. I was shocked to find this out yesterday morning. 36 is too young.

Awesome post, JP! This is why we all love you. It's awesome to see how much you've grown as an artist. Jake Shimabukuro is sick and from another world. I've been playing uke for 4 years now, and I LOVE it. Ukes are great songwriting tools. I have tiny hands that can't seem to play the more complex v...

So entertainment value doesn't matter if you entertain? You forgot to mention high quality musicians...I guess musicianship doesn't matter either? Art? Yeah, right....cover band art.

If there's anything that I've learned by moving back to this area its that the local music "scene" doesn't have a fucking thing to do with talent! Why don't you cite some examples of this "talent-less scene"? Because the last time I checked, there were a LOT of talented people a...

Lakemont Park is charging the admission price NOT the bands or the organizers, the bands DO NOT get paid anywhere NEAR what has been mentioned in this thread, a few of the Wing Off's this year will be benefiting charities such as the Steve Cosco Ride, and Operation: Christmas Child. They are also ha...

At least all the bands are local this year. Not to mention, 5 of the six acts to choose from perform original music in their sets. That definitely adds value to the admission price in my book. The Wing Off's are being organized by a different person than previous years. I also would have liked to ha...

I'll bite, Johnny! We keep a list of songs for bar shows, and feel the crowd out. Sometimes they want more originals so we manipulate on the fly. Other times, they want their faces melted off with jams and we oblige. Most times they just want the funk and that's what they get! We do structure sets f...

I agree with some of what has been posted, but I can offer a bit of a different perspective. I do not believe that you have to play material from the Top 100, unless that is what you want to do , and if that is the market you want to reach out to. Play what you play, what ever that may be, with int...
