What is music to you? What does it give you?

music is life and it's the way my brain can express itself to the world. It is first and foremost therapy for my crazy mind. my financial situation is up and down and but all I do for work is production in music it's about 10 percent production and 90% playing music. I'm ultra serious about this stuff but I also know how to have fun with it all. I also draw a bunch and you graphic design but that's just for fun. I can learn a set of music hours before a gig and do well, I don't like that all the time but I get a lots of those calls where someone flakes out last minute and I have to fill in. my ears are really developed and I can here saw once and have it basically down, as long as it's not Coltrane Giant Steps because that would take me at least three listens.
