HI Doug,

I feel your pain. I'm in the same boat (sorry for the pun Captian!). I'm currently playing drums with a Wedding/Dance band, so at the moment I have suspended my Jazz piano lessons which I have been faithfully attending for the past 2 years. My time for the past 3 weeks has been getting my drum chops up to performance standard. Now that I have conquered that, I've now been tasked with singing up to 60 songs with this band, so I have to learn all the words and practice my vocal articulations.

I don't have time for the keyboards any longer and it get's me frustrated because I love them so much.

I guess it all boils down to priorities. I'm making HUGE money with the Wedding band, I'd be a fool to give it up!!

Best of Luck
Al
