More Band Reflection

Lately the "band" reflections keep flooding in. We took our little family to a concert in the part to see a friend who was drumming for a country band. We really had an amazing time. There was no stress, no worries, and none of OUR money on the line. It is the first live music I've seen since the band. I had almost forgotten that those sorts of things can be fun if you can just go and relax and not feel like your whole life is on the line with every show. After we got there, the band took a break for technical problems. A few people left. Tim and I would have been flipping out if it had been one of our shows. As we watch the band hustle to get things fixed, I asked Tim if the drama on stage was stressing him out. He said, "It would if I was here by myself. But where here as a family. We're just chillin'. And it actually makes me relaxed to know I never ever have to deal with that sort of thing ever again." He really looked happy.

After the show, he took Quinn up to see the stage. He pointed out instruments and equipment and told her all about it. I could tell he was reflecting on the past a little. It is hard not too. But again he seems to have made the choice that makes him really happy, and that is really cool.

Music is fun again. Life is life is fun again.

I guess it all turned out to be something different.
