I'm doing pretty good...I play demos and do clinics for Yamaha, do the occasional restaurant gig, do some studio work, sometimes fill in for other keyboardists in local bands, and buy and sell hard to find and/or rare keyboards (mainly, Yamaha).

I have a buddy who helps with the latter...he scans estate sales, and such, and then contacts me.

You do what you have to do, and do what you seem to like and know best...usually something that really interests you.

We only get one shot at this life, and those of us who have narrowly escaped the grim reaper know this all too well...there are no time outs, no recesses, and no replays...may as well try to do what you love.

I find the years sure seem shorter after I passed 55 (I'm now 60)...is it just me?
