the house band at the jam i mentioned had a great harp player.  he didn't
play because he liked to, or chose to, but because he needed to.  he's in a
great band, and well known in the area, so it's not a problem.  but 
depriving
him of a place to play would be like depriving normal people of food or 
water,
or air.
