I am so blessed that all I've done in my professional life, since I was 17-18, is play music and somehow make a dollar here and there.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
In my mid 30's, after a decade or so of giving full time to the music thing and finding myself with about $10 in the bank and no assets other than my musical equipment, I realized I needed to get serious about making a living.
I just thank God I can make a living doing something I enjoy as much as I do playing music.
Music has always been a large part of my life, and I'm very fortunate to be able to start a career doing something I love.
I will be very grateful that I get to go out and play a song and get well paid for it.
Well, I actually first got into music as a small child, and as I became a teen, I sought out making money from music, weather that was singing lounge gigs, backup in studios, or weddings.
I have my dream job. I get paid to make music.
Back home, playing music is never anything you imagine you can do for a living. It's what you do after work.
It is completely a God thing that I am here today because for the first 17 years of my life, I never thought I would ever do music professionally. I'd always liked what my dad did, but I never thought that I wanted to do it, just to be different.
I'm no different than any other human being. I play music for a living, and we're very blessed.
At 17, I was working at Sprint in the Bronx so I could make money to fund my own music.
