So at the party Friday night, one of the random hotel guys asked if this was the only gig the band plays. I said yes, this is the only thing we do together... some of the guys have other things they do, but this is the only thing we do as a group.

So I started thinking... right now, this is the only thing I'm doing. Which is ridiculous, once I start thinking about it. It's an insane amount of effort and stress, for the meager output of 1 hour of live music per year.
