I've been playing music professionally for the last 32 years and working nearly every night of the week. I remember when I was very young, an older musician I worked with said that as musicians age, they become "tainted". I did not know what he meant by this when he said it, but now I do. He said there was nothing you could do to prevent it, it just happens. I still enjoy performing music, but I have become "tainted". He was right! It happens.

eesh, I'm such a noob. Spent most of my gigging days playing in worthless bands that talked about gigging, but never left the garage.
I've done more gigs in the last 2 months the the rest of my entire 25 years of playing.
So I'm at the <10 level.
By the end of the year, I'm hoping for 40-50 though![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Yeah the 70`s and early 80`s were filled w/ all sorts of things that probably should not have been ingested but thankfully I have made it through fairly unscathed. Those long jams were a lot of fun and I still get grief from my other band members for stuff like I like to play the 18 minute version of the live get ready or the seventeen minute Tobacco road by Johnny Winter And Edgar Lang. Now, a glass of red helps to relax but it doesn't go much farther than that when playing although a cold brew after is still a favorite. Keep playin that rock and rll, keep doin what you been told.!!MRG2U
