Almost 4 months ago I had a stroke, which all but halted my return to drumming. Although I joined a band, practiced learning 60 songs in 3 weeks and played out, the resulting recovery was and is still going on. I still have 3 complete drum sets. I hope to Play again in the future, but that dream is faltering too.
I used to go out 2-3 times a week to see live music. That has lost it's glimmer too.
Maybe its because I've done it. It doesn't seem all that glamorous any more.
Not the photography
Not playing in a band
Not watching bands.
They've all lost their shimmer.
Late night road trips.
Rude crowds.
Phoney people.
The last few times I went out, I kept thinking, I busted my ass to get here... why? Same goes for drumming, or photography. Why???
Now, work drives me. Target $300 per week. Thats it.
