 "My
parents always encouraged me to work. And so when I first could
earn a living at doing something creative, I did. I was 15 years
old when I got my first paycheck for singing with a band at high
school dance. I got paid twenty-five dollars and I thought that
was so much money.. I thought that was the cat's meow! I mean,
twenty-five dollars for one night. But that was a special thing -
a prom, I think- so they paid the whle band $ 125. Then I joined a
group and we started singing weekends in a pub on the campus of a
state university. It was very 'artsy-craftsy' stuff. I earned
twenty-five dollars for the weekend - and I thought I was rolling
in the money!" |
