A couple of years back we took a cruise on Carnival, there was this 40ish looking cat in the lounge right off the casino. He played the guitar and had a laptop for backing and a small rack of synths connected to it. he had a nice little notebook with notes on each song and about three different guitars behind him. He could play almost anything and was very good at most songs. His backing tracks sounded great.

I chatted with him on a break, and he told me he spend a lot of time developing the ac, and it was the culmination of 20 years of live playing in bands, and he was tired of the other players. He was serious and professional and it showed. I was very impressed. That convinced me to begin working up an act like that, even if i never took it on the road it would be fun for parties and weddings and playing live for friends. I am about where you are Jeff, about 50 to 60 songs in the "can" and slowly growing the mix.
