I played "experimental and totally improvised music" at a
"Singer/songwriter's Night" at a local beer house,  using tenor sax
for livelooping. To my ears everyone else there tried to mimic some
well known country artist I don't know the name of. I thought they
should start throwing ashtrays and beer cans at me as I started to
squeal and scramble on stage but it appeared about half of them
appreciated my gig as "very, very different" while the other half
thought I had been acting out to a pre recorded CD and they simply
accepted "not understanding this art form". One guy said to me he did
not like what I was doing but was glad anyway having witnessed "the
most strange stuff so far".
