But they were always, "Play show tunes! Play show tunes! " Because most of ... thats a steak house, if you remember. And um, the stage was in the middle part; there was a circle bar, and the stage was on the inside of the bar, so the people look at (you) like.... And usually, most of the people came to eat, have some dinner before a Broadway show or whatever. After Broadway show theyd come back, either they would have dinner or a drink or whatever it is. Thats what, I guess, the theme was. Most of those places you had to play a lot of show tunes, and I didnt know too many show tunes, and wed play Buds tunes or Monks tunes, things like that, you know, they always really ... "Play show tunes! Play show tunes! " And I ... I, up til today I think I was booked in the wrong place. But ... I dont blame them. I think theres a place--I didnt know then, I do now--but theres a place for that kind of ... somewhere between a cocktail lounge and a jazz club, uh, different from a Five Spot or a Half Note or a Birdland, and that goes in a different category. I know now, but I didnt know then, so I was playing things that they probably didnt want to hear (laughs).
