After many years I'm thinking of going back gigging ... basically because I need an income. Ideally I'd like to play music I'm into myself to a listening crowd, in other words avoid the "Alice" and "Wagon wheel" brigade but I'm not sure how realistic that is.

After many years I'm thinking of going back gigging ... basically because I need an income. Ideally I'd like to play music I'm into myself to a listening crowd, in other words avoid the "Alice" and "Wagon wheel" brigade but I'm not sure how realistic that is. I need to make a minimum of about €300/wk and I'd be open to advise on what my best approach would be. In case anyone is interested or has gigs lined up I play acoustic guitar, 5 string banjo, bouzouki and harmonica quite well and sing a bit. I'm into lots of different types of music especially acoustic stuff and I really like stuff like Neill Young, James Taylor, Carol King, Alison Krauss and on the Irish scene, Planxty, Paul Brady and lately John Spillane but without offending anyone, I'm not into ballads or Irish country. Based in Kildare.
