I would probably do it if it's my main source of income, i did my share of travelling when i was in a band as a guitar player, i used to play up north, Nj, Pa, De. & Ny,( 10-20yrs. ago ) i even played overseas ( asia ).before i relocated here in the US. I had an offer awhile back to do a show in SC, all expenses paid, i also turned that down, it's a hobby for me now, i got spoiled tavelling 10-15 min. away from my house, i still have 1 show left every other sunday at a country club, so nothing is lost, I still get the same amount of money. but anyway thanks for all your comments and responses.
