I play keyboards and do a little bit of harmony vocal singing.

Awesome congrats!

It can often feel like a job, but a comment like yours reminds me to appreciate the situation. Thanks for saying that.

Good question. I'm not sure. I make 6 figures as a recording session / touring keyboardist, but I also have friends who play cover gigs in downtown Nashville bars, and because of the high volume of tourism, they also make 6 figures. Mostly accumulating cash tips. So I suppose it's possible, in Nashville at least, to make good money as a player in many different avenues.

Very good insight here.

My income is a mix of independent contractor (1099) and employee (W2). There are also some back end royalties that I see about twice a year. For recording sessions, there is a general rate of $200 - $500 per 3-hr session depending on what I'm working on. For touring, I have different day rates depending on whether it's a show day, travel day, rehearsal day etc.

Bango’s Pest Control. They resolved both a wasp issue and a roach issue. And helped resolve a brown recluse issue for a friend of mine. Solid family owned company.

Delish but way too expensive.

Second this.

Seen them at Bellevue Aldi as well.

One of my faves!

… a skill I’d love to learn :)

Omission pale ale is my fave and I can find it almost anywhere. Definitely trader Joe’s or Whole Foods

Dr Rodney Lewis at heritage medical associates. I’ve been seeing him for 10 years. Very genuine guy

Saw some in west Meade wine and liquor yesterday.

The mac n cheese at Martin’s BBQ surprised me and turned out to be my fave in recent memory.

Thanks for doing this. Is there a place where I can input buying and sell fees (for me in USD), and withdraw fees from the exchanges (for me this would be a crypto amount)?

That’s interesting. My stomach can be pretty sensitive but if I don’t overeat I actually feel amazing leaving there.

Fleet Street pub!

Same. Paul rocks. And I emailed him after to let him know and I got a friendly response pretty quickly.
