Hi Bruce,
I think the problem is that most of your loyal clientele are musicians, who are by definition, usually broke.
So therefore, it may be necessary to rethink the business model to appeal to a demographic with more disposable income, like say -- the Wal-Mart heirs.
Thus, I suggest your next project should be a Kathie Lee Gifford tribute.
Glad I could help,
Marty
