Finding other people who have the same likes in music as you do and are willing to spend 3 to 5 hours a day 3 to 5 days a week getting tight and ready to step up on the stage and blow them away. So when our names spreads it spreads like fire, not with laughs.
Trying to find a place to spend all that time practicing and the next place to play.
So much to be learned along the way.
But it is a great ride even if you never get to play more than 3 or 4 times.
