Like Eddie and Rog I got burned out. In the mid 60’s to the early 70’s I was making more money playing music than I was working. When I finally got an offer to tour I had a wife, kid, mortgage and a good job so I turned it down.

After 40 years of wedding bands I called it quits. But thanks to an Atari computer with those funny looking 5 pin plugs in the back, a Korg DS-8, Dr. T’s sequencer and a little program called BiaB I kept music as a hobby. Now with DAWs and especially with BiaB I am playing what I want when I want. All I have to do is to please myself.

So no, today I could not make a living playing music. But music has and still does supplement my income very nicely.

For me plan B worked out the best!

Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
