Jory has told me that the booking folks at Hugh's prefer the artists performing the Lightfoot Celebration shows be noted professionals in their own right and have their own fan base as a draw to fill the seats at the venue.
If the shows were open to all the folks who love Lightfoot music/perform once in a while/record cd's etc, but are not pros, they'd have enough talent onstage 24/7/365 year after year for sure but Hugh's Room needs 'names' to fill the seats and pay the bills.
