Recording Artist Advocate: Love Stinks...

Well, it can smell pretty funky. A successful working musician spends 

a lot of time practicing and gigging. Then you have calls to make, booking, and other business. When everyone else is playing, you’re working. 

You’re the soundtrack to their play. It can be extremely hard on a relationship. 

I’ve heard artist say they just want to get successful enough to hire people so they can have their lives back.

If you’re in a relationship, be patient and hope they are too. If you have 
the same goals you can get through it. If you don’t… at least be willing 
to make a clean break. If that doesn’t work you can always write 
a song about it. Bad relationships do seem to make for the best songs.

If you're not in a relationship, don't be in a hurry. Things tend to 
work out. There, that's some great wisdom.

So it’s Valentine’s Day. Hope you have a show tonight 
and you really do well.
