Many, many, MANY years ago I took a job working the main restaurant & bar at the Calgary Stampede. Naturally, they had a band playing in there every night; a fairly average combo from somewhere in California, woohoo. After a few nights of this, one of the other temp workers, who was from Newfoundland, naturally, pulled me off to the side. He said, "You know, that band isn't very good. They just keep playing the same bunch of songs every night." I managed to keep a straight face as I gently explained some of the subtleties of the live music biz to the poor guy.
