Hi Lloyd. Re: getting enough music in your life...and being driven.

Yes SIR. I love playing so much, that not a day goes by without at least a couple of hours on one or more of the thirty instruments down the basement. The great dichotomy in my life is that although I've been a professional for over thirty years, I HATE the "biz" part of the music biz. All the crap you have to do with promoting, publicising, yada yada...even recording (which is like going to the dentist for me)

I do as much of that stuff as I have to to earn a living, but I play 'cause it's in my heart...period. Glad to hear your doin' some band things.

keep on pickin'

Rick
