Just been reading the posts and still haven't changed my mind about my posts or most of what has been said here. Today I have another gig and the first thing I thought of after getting out of bed this morning was the fact I "HAD" to go play another gig. Somehow it just isn't the fun it once was. Last night I even started going through all my keyboards and music related junk thinking about what I could start selling off and at what price points.

The problem is I really have nothing else I have a serious interest in doing and the music at least keeps my mind busy and provides an outlet for those days when there is nothing else to do. I'm at that point in my life when most things are on that "been there, done that" list - some of which shouldn't have been done the first time. Oh well, off I will go today and will certainly play with vigor and spirit for the residents.

By the way, each year I always end up with some invoices that never get paid. Seems to be part of the business and it seldom is worth the effort to chase them down which usually requires many phone calls, several emails, and often more than one faxe. I usually end up just writing them off and saving myself a lot of time and frustration.
