Thread Name: Music: Your Day Job
Subject: RE: Music: Your Day Job
I performed professionally for 12 years but that ended 20 years ago when I got married, had kids, real job, etc. Last year I bought a small PA with plans to play out again just a few times a month. First time out playing one song at my cousins wedding last night. I had in mind playing in nursing homes once or twice a month to help me get back in shape and to "give back" a little. Never considered charging but after reading posts here I may reconsider! Found this site today and was also interested in the few posts regarding teaching guitar. My question: "Are any of you teaching guitar without reading music?". I've been asked many times to teach, but I've always declined because I don't read. Any thoughts appreciated...Rick in Atlanta
