Re: professional loopers?



Well, I have to say that I've earned many a food credit at the ABC Cafe 
in Ithaca NY for the loop based shows that I performed there with David 
Klausner (btw, if anyone knows the whereabouts of this fine 
guitarist/chapman stick player, give him my email address)incorperate.  
A living?  Few would call it that, but I sure did like their Guac and 
cheese omlets.  Yum.

I must say, if I try and think about how much money I've made doing any 
music compared to what I've spent on gear, I'd be very depressed.
