AMEN ...

To paraphrase Gary (travelin' easy), being a musician ain't for wimps ...

The one thing my father-in-law (may he rest in peace) told my wife was "you have our blessing, but remember, he's a musician !!!"

As I have said here on other occasions, I was with a band in NY for 26 years ... same guys, from high school ... One is now in his early 70's, the rest of us mid 60's ... what's kind of amazing is that we are each still married to our first wife ... and none of us ever had a drinking problem or did drugs ... Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for some of our contemporaries ...
