Re: MOST SOUND MEN ARE....

[Mike Feeney <feeneymike@yahoo.com>]

    "failed musicians" is such a harsh phrase...  =)  the bassist in my 
band
is self-supported as a gear repairman, but is about to start a job as a
house soundman.  Heheh, I'd say he's an outstanding musician, has played in
just about every semi-pro band to come out of this town... Just never MADE
it.  

    Yet.  ;)
