Perhaps what we would need to do is add another level or class to the
heirarchy, for the pros.  That way, the pros aren't competing with the
amateurs and walking off with the top prizes again and again.  (of course,
some amateur groups might put the pros in their places for a while!).

How's that sound?

We really need to define the use of the word professional here - like most
of you, I have played with amateurs who have a very professional approach
to their music making - also played with professionals with a totally
amateur approach! Paying money doesn't mean you get a better player/band
member!
