Academia being what it is, I predict it won't last long... Back in the day if you were teaching (classical) music performance at the college level, a list of orchestra and recital gigs was just dandy, preferably with a master's degree. But even by the time I was finishing they were pressuring my teacher to get a DMA (Doctor of Musical Arts) if he wanted to stay on the faculty. IMO it's even more of a union card than a PhD. I expect when you're ready to hang it up and accept your gold watch, your younger colleagues will be muttering about how the #&*( did you get hired without a doctorate.
