not a pro but it is part of being a pro and part of playing music. it comes down to if you want others to play what you like, you have to play what they like. AND, if you are going to play out, you have to play what your audience likes.
i have played with some of the best pro's in myrtle bch, including steve bailey(it was at church but i still got to play on stage with him). seems like every time i stopped in to see this one guy, he was always playing brown eyed girl. he hates it and sick to death of it but the audience loves it. i always give him a hard time about it.
got another friend that says if he has to play proud mary again he will kill himself. so he now plays jazz.
i have had to play songs that i really did not like and songs that were hard to make the guitar fit, but i did it, and i played them like i loved them. thank goodness songs were always changing.
