Gig Life (EB 2017)

After our gig, people hurry to their homes.
A warm bed is there waiting for them.
After our gig, we stay overnight to pack up our gear
A cold, dreary gig bus is waiting for the players.

After our gig, some people go on.
To a club or bar to party until the break of dawn.
After our gig, we also celebrate a bit:
Cold pizza, warm beer are waiting for the players.

After our gig, we finally get home to sleep.
Early in the next morning, we go back to work to earn our living.
But when the work is over, we are longing back to stage:
A new venue, a new night, is waiting for the players.
But when the work is over, we are longing back to stage:
A new venue, a new night, is waiting for the players.

Hi Arri!
This song brings back memories for me - playing gigs, arriving home late after lugging gear around; not going to sleep because my head was buzzing; sometimes saying I don't want to go through it anymore; then next day or later, longing for the next booking and playing with mates and seeing the audience dance and sing.
Well done!
Andrew D

Thanks. The lyrics were based on my own experiences, but maybe common to many of us.
