Wild. You are actually a professional musician now 
I mean sure it’s on the side, but you met the definition - you’re making actual cheddar from playing. That’s more than I ever did (despite gigging).
Lots of pro musicians with day jobs!

That’s fantastic! Props!
The one thing I missed most after retiring was the audiences. Motorola sent me all over the world for speaking engagements. That was such a rush. I really, really need to up my bass game and do what @JoshFossgreen said and just “join a f’ing band!”

I mean it’s a long old road starting with never having played an instrument as an adult to playing in a band in a bar, but in my case I think the hard work has paid off @TheMaartian. All it took was three years and thousands of hours sat in the spare room working away 
Now it’s just a laugh. I’m playing music with friends with people dancing to it. There are way worse things to do with your spare time. Anybody can do this, just put in the work.

Struggling to fit into your ‘European sized’ Bass Buzz shirt?
Not to worry, as our band now has merch. Generous North American sizing / cut t-shirts. 
N.B. I’ve ordered a Bass Buzz t-shirt because @JoshFossgreen changed my life (for the better of course), also I’m joking unless you really, really, really want me to send you a sweet t-shirt from Canada.

I listened to Amos Heller on an SBL podcast and he said ‘treat every gig like an audition, because you never know who’s watching’
From last nights gig we got a birthday gig booked from a lady who’d never seen us before and thought they look fun, I want them for my party.

This is so awesome! 
And it’s a nice advice too, treating every gig as an audition. Who knows where it may lead? Congrats, Barney! Nice T-shirts as well!
