I'll only say that standards are incrementally higher now, even for a modest blues harp player!
When I caught up last year after 30 years with Charlie Harper, the singer with the UK Subs, he swore that He, I, Rod Stewart and a guy called Ray Sone auditioned to be the harp player with the Downliners Sect, but I don't think I ever did*.
Or to put it another way, I realised it wasn't my career choice and gave up, the day I saw Paul Butterfield live.

*Or to put it another way, I know that I didn't!

The cafeteria food can't really be recommended, though. laugh
