Congrats brother. So we both been married 23 years and we both got a step daughter. Interesting.
I would've dumped any woman on her head who dared to interfere with my gigging. I've had it out a few times with the ol' lady when she thought I was getting too many fun and games. She finally realized that a Twin reverb is like a ball and chain once the gigs over so it's not like it was party time but damned if I didn't make it a good time while I worked. I've made a half dozen moves cross country with my family to pursue musical interests. Florida 3x, Nashville once, Texas twice. She'd go to Alaska or Hawaii if I pressed the issue. She loves musical adventure in new places like I do. My kids hate relocating, lol. The problem is I kinda got established down here with the best band I've ever had so I'm averse to moving away right now since I can make a few bucks here and there doing it.
