If you can play live and support yourself, it's one of the few ways you're going to actually get paid in this business these days.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Live and work but do not forget to play, to have fun in life and really enjoy it.
There's something interesting about playing live; you're in the moment, and I think it would be beneficial.
I'm a freelance person, and I've always been able to support myself.
For me, the money isn't a big issue. I'm at the end of my career and I'm just happy to play.
I get to play golf for a living. What more can you ask for - getting paid for doing what you love.
Playing live is really the art form. You're a lot freer, a lot looser. You've got people there that can give you feedback, and then you can play off of that. There's so much more energy.
Life isn't all me. I have a family to support. I can't rob them of a good life simply because I want to play something.
I live with the fact that while I am playing, I am going to give everything I have, and I will live with those consequences.
Unless you are wealthy, you cannot afford to act or direct one play and remain unemployed the rest of the time.
You've got to pay me to leave my house, spend the night in hotels and fly in airplanes. That's what I get paid for. Playing I actually do for free.
