I'd hoped you'd stop by and remind me that I'm just being a big wuss. I only play out 2 or 3 times a month. Last Summer it was 4 times a month, but we decided that was too much.
I get tired at the end of a gig, it's a good kind of tired, though. But let me tell you this, as most musicians know, at the end of the night, the gear is a lot heavier to move than it was when setting up. I figure there are tons of unused notes still inside.
If I only did 2 or 3 times a month, I'd go broke. Music is all I do to buy the groceries.
I've only had a couple of real jobs in my life, so that makes me the wuss.
