Taking stock of future options. Mid 60's here and can probably retire from the pharmacy field in a couple years, concentrate on music and get ready for my major come back in the rock n' roll arena.
 
I figure when I get the ultimate band together, we're going to have to hire a full orchestra, engineers, producers, technicians, lawyers, promoters, investment consultants.

I worked out all the financial stuff including hair transplants and wrinkle laser lifts, but came up short on how to finance the dancing girls in the back line. Then I ran onto this... Who needs dancing girls with this option...

Platinum or gold are in the stars. Rock n' roll hall of fame, move over Bing Crosby, here I come...

That's great! Think about the savings in catering alone. Plus those birdbrains probably won't notice if you slip in some self-serving clauses into the contract. No agents, no entourage, no egos, and all you need is yesterday's newspaper to minimize after-session cleanup.
 

Love to see him dancing to some AC/DC!
Brilliant!!

Some powerful and logical arguments here. Convincing enough to retire even earlier and get the show on the road.
 
I realize now with the savings on newspaper and doing my part to recycle and keep the planet green, I can probably afford to take a full choir on the road using the same cost effective strategies. Added benefit to me is that this could be my deciding reason to upgrade to X3. Then I can get the upgrade path to Melodyne so I can make good use of the pitch correction for the choir.
