In his junior year, he took over the lease on the Idea House Western restaurant in the commercial district around Taipei's Zhongxiao East Road Section 4. Apart from giving his own band a regular place to perform, he also invited many folk singers to come and perform. Many folk singers back in the day got their start there.
大三那年，他頂下台北頂好商圈的愛迪亞民歌西餐廳，除了讓自己所組的樂團擁有固定的表演場所外，更邀請許多民歌手駐唱，成為台灣早期的民歌發源地之一。
