Where do your people play in Louisville?
I don't go to very many bars but my brother in law plays at a small VFW on weekends. Works a regular job at GE so he wouldn't want weeknights anyway. He does it as much for his own pleasure/entertainment value as he does the money. He's computer illiterate so I can't talk him into going electronic. But he did find a disc system to make it pretty simple to find and store the discs.
Oh and don't say that
all KJ's in this area use illegal discs. I know better.
I also know of a lot who do just as you are saying too.
I'm not saying that he doesn't use burned copies at the shows but I beat him over the head after he started to make sure he has the originals of
all the discs he plays. I know this because I have backed all of them up for him to use. 560 some right now.
