And what is wrong with playing certain songs that the audience wants to hear? Does playing that song makes you a lousy musician? Is it because it has three simple chords and that it isn't a challenge for you as a musician? For me, I get a lot of enjoyment out the reaction of the audience. If they like the songs (even if they're not my taste) and have a good time with them, who am I to say they're listening to the wrong kind of music? Should I tell them that what they like isn't really music?

If you want to sell your goods, you'll have to produce what the people want. If your customers want a cheap car with a large payload area, you better not make a Ferrari...
