'it takes 20 years to become an overnight success....'

Deni, you mean I gotta lock myself in for the big double sawbuck if I expect to to any fruit on this vine? Zoinks! I don't know if I can hold out. I'll be clear past my (mid)life crisis by then and well into my latelife Chrysler and with the price of gas skyrocketing as it is and the way that thing guzzles I'll never make it to a gig without runnin' outta gas and ca$hola.
