but guess what, they make bank at what they do.

the band has been going strong for 13 years, packs every place, every night of the week. thats all they do. They have no other job. They all support themselves, and their families off of that band. They are all on a salary, and get 2 weeks paid vacation. I was in a band with the bass player for the last 3 years. Him going to soul patch was the best thing that ever happened to him. Hes been with them for a month, and already bought a nice 2 story house with his new salary.
