[QUOTE=bluedonna92;3946242]Thanks for the comments! My brother used to play at nursing homes actually, but there's no telling if he enjoyed playing for such audiences. He slowly stopped doing that, I guess because it requires regular contact with the nursing home administrators, since the gigs weren't regular. I know he loves to play piano and perform, so it'd be great if he could do that again.

I see the point of how dealing with administrators could be a prob. What he really needs is a manager that can call up a dozen nursing homes and schedule a few concerts for him IF he can perform a trial run of the songs he would play and show some enthusiasm. Then the manager can make sure he shows up for performance. You could say performing for 45 minutes would equal a whole day's work at stop and shop moneywise but a lot more fun.
The office is even more interactive than the administrators. There is so much requirement of flexibility in an office environment. So many people to bounce off. He seems in my opinion to like working independently.
