pro, semi-pro or amateur

[Jeffrey J Daniels <lljjd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  I'm semi-pro, 'cos the harp isn't paying my rent..but lately I've
been making records ( they still make 'em, seven inch singles, ten-inch
ep's, lp's etc.) and landed on a few cd's.  I've done some session work
for dough and done some sessions simply for the experience.  I version
of "Tiger in Your Tank," I did with my defunct punk blues combo,
Jack O' Fire has landed on a japanese cd compilation and we're slated
for a full length cd on the same 1+2 label.  I have a solo single
coming out on Undone records, a tiny independent label here in austin.

Amateur (my real job pays better than harping ever will) but I like

jamming and playing for people.
