When Kirk met McCoy he told Kirk that he may has well be in space because his X took the whole damn planet and all he had left was his bones. LOL.
 
My dads first wife took all his clothes when she left...he had to call a friend.



Oh I believe it.....sad that women are so cruel......the really sad thing is that I met her in music school and she knew what it meant to me by taking that stuff......I also had Bonsai trees that I had about 10 years of work into that she just let dry out and die.....again.....she knew ....
 
So it is no wonder I have issues to this day.......
anyway
I did not mean to get off topic here.....but it was part and parcel of the story.....
All I needed to do was throw in some non gratutidous sex and it would of made a million bucks at the box office...........    :-)
 
Ok well maybe not.....But I am not sorry I did the music thing full time.....I just wish it would have gone a bit different and I could play like I did back then.....it really was the best years of my life.......it was music 24/7...........I do sometimes wonder if it would have turned out differently if I would have gone to like Berkely in Boston. But oh well.....
 
I am still happy right now

One of the most interesting gigs I ever played was at a members-only sex club. It was a private mansion, right in the city. I'd driven past it many times but never knew it was there, being hidden behind high walls and foliage. Members drove in from all over the state to swim, dance, eat, watch porn and hook up. Sadly, the activities were reserved for members only and not extended to the hired help. I never told my wife about that gig, but she must have had some clue when I got home that night...

Do you think it was your smile that gave it away?
Women hone in on things like that you know......

I probably derailed the thread. I'm derailed so many here expect it from me.
Full -time....I think it would have been easier than holding a day job and then a music career after working all day. Having money, family, insurance...etc. are really the type of factor that I couldn't trade-off for. Thought about it though.
Maybe when I retire?....do a Candy kind of trip and travel around in the back of a moving truck with a polka band...?....and dream of gigs with Bit and Randy.
 

Only when I was on "extended" tours but those were never more than a month or so at a time. I foolishly thought it best to keep a job and an apartment and kept things mostly to local gigs. I usually had at least one gig a month but usually more and there were stints of weekly regular gigs. I played in a lot of bands simultaneously too... usually 2-3 at a time but sometimes up to 5-6 so between rehearsals, gigging and writing/practicing at home 20-40 hours a week went into the music on top of my full time day jobs. It was exhausting at times but I did a lot. Now though in light of the fact my work ethic and day gigs have pretty much crippled me I regret not just throwing caution to the wind and doing more tours/regular paid gigs instead of slaving away for peanuts. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Now I can't do either.

batsbrewthanks guys (where are the gals?)

I thought y'all were bored of my stories of partying with Bad Banners, hob knobbing with Blaze Bayley, getting Girl School to molest my Andy, watching a Stranglers set from side stage, mixing FOH for an AC/DC tribute act while so drunk I can't remember being carried out at the end...   and then there's the times when I was playing.......

Yes, I have done drugs music full time, 1970/71. I think...
 
The most memorable fan comment was from one of the "exotic dancers" who said, "he may be small but he is wirey". I guess you had to be there, they told me I was there. I was lead singer and acoustic guitar.

While watching one of my bands play my (now ex) girlfriend had one of her friends remark "I bet that's the face he makes in bed... isn't it?" in reference to my furious guit playing facial contortions. Apparently she was indeed correct. How embarrassing. lol
