which is hard on the body and not that well paid either
and it's extremely anti social hours when you have a family at home.

yes ok get a day job you say
maybe maybe not.

but the point is that if i did get a day job that would be the end of it for me
i'm not speaking for anyone else , but i couldn't do both ( well not properly )
and to be honest i love music and i don't want to give it up.
what would you do for a proper job?
Jesus maybe me and a few other hundred acid techno heads could set up a monthly standing order. I ****ing hate giving money to charity, cos it all goes in Swiss Bank Accounts. Why not be the patron of some fantastic artist like some relatively wealthy Roman citizen. Five pounds each a month. Should pay the mortgage. You get on with selling some quality techno.
