My hands are still sticky from the sea, as I took a freezing dip in the sea an hour ago and have not washed my hands yet. I need to though because the salt from the sea makes your hands really sticky for some reason. Today I will work at a place for a little while and then get some work done around the house before taking a little nap to refresh my mind. I need to charge the batteries in my sound system too because they are getting a bit drained themselves and I don’t want it dying while playing in air conditioned clubs like the one tonight. We are playing in a beach bar later for $200 and need the sound system for two hours, so I will charge it up now to make sure my friend and I don’t run out of juice in the middle of our set. We also get tips at the local business and usually go with close to $300 for the night, which is good because doing that a few times a week pays all my bills for the month. I can’t wait for winter so my friend and I can play in heated bars and in some other places with fireplaces by the stage. We change up the music a bit in the winter and make more music about snow and skiing and things like that. It is a good life being in a band and doing what you love, however I still work some as an HVAC tech for the local corporation in town to save a little money.
