I hussle my ass off!!! I gig like crazy and save the money for the gear I want. Some months, I'm out gigging a whole lot more than I am recording. I'm very fortunate that as of right now, my main gig is as the keyboard player for what right now seems to be a quite promising young country star. I'm extremely fortunate and grateful that I get paid for rehearsals and gigs.

I have to admit though, there was a time when I made less than $30k, ate sometimes 1 meal a day and it was a 99cent chili from Wendys and drove a 1992 Civic with over $200k miles. I feel like the luckiest guy on earth have a good combination of high end gear, an awesome female that supports what I do(probably mostly because I'm pretty good about taking her to dinner and to see a movie whenever possible) and allows me to make noise at home!!
