      I've rubbing down some doors ready for painting and I kept singing and thinking about that very line.
      For years I've been saying to people who don't really do anything with their lives but sit around moaning that this is not a rehearsal this is it no second chances but "welcome to your life, there's no turning back" sums it up perfectly, better than I ever did

      I played to a similar party crowd a few years back. Wealthy and loud as I recall. I was just a neighbor who was asked to play a couple acoustic songs. Folks came up and talked about me, in front of me, while I was playing and singing 2 feet away...”hey he’s pretty good”, and asking me “what song is that?”, vs waiting the full 2:45 sec the song took. Happens all the time. Some folks are inherently trying to undermine your talent, one that they don’t, and cant possess. Others are just drunk or tabbed out and wanna make noise. I went electric so I can drown the assholes out if needed. Thank God I don’t have to play for a living.
