Dave:
Yep. That definitely describes me -- married, homeowner and also part-time
musician.
In addition to the free-lancing you mentioned, I also cover Pennsylvania
state politics for the Morning Call of Allentown, Pa.
I played bass in bands all through high school and college, and then stopped
for a while. In my mid-20s, I started again, this time doing the solo
acoustic thing, and now front my own band.
Thanks for the welcome.
John.
