I'm thinking this is a sign that I should just keep trying to find old-folks homes to play at. Though it's true that I once played "The Sound of Music," and afterwards a little old lady stood up and told me they don't like that new stuff. My core repertoire when I go out goes back to the teens and up to about 1972 or so, with some anomalies at both ends. He told me specifically (afterwards) not to do show tunes. I pointed out that their regular Friday guy does them, and he said something to the effect that that was okay for him, and I shouldn't be trying to imitate him. Crap, I've been playing those things longer than his bleeding Friday guy.
