What do you do after you're home from the gig?

Up for Mr. Bassman, who got curious after telling him about this thread I started.

Any updates, gentlemen?

:D ... i talked to mikeweil about the after-the-gig-ceremonies.... and he invited me to this thread...

at first, after stowing away the instruments etc. there is a "have-a-drink" phase, normally mineral water, then it will be followed by the "fridge"-phase for a snack and then a visit to the bathroom. The next phase is "coming-down"... reading newspapers or reading in a book, which waits for me at the cupboard beside the bed, sometimes a bit INet. In rare situations there will be a stop at the whisky-bar and a fine dram closes a fine concert (... or works for the "musicians-food-problems" :crazy: ....).... but, the last saturday was different..... as I am in this BFT-thing here at organissimo ..., the first after-hour-relaxation-thing was reading the new postings there and... writing some answers. Then there was the normal process... but no whisky at this time, because the sound on stage was :crazy: THAT :crazy: perfect :rcry ..... and sleeping-phase after that was very short... the next day there was a trip to Hamburg on the scedule... drink & drive is not my hobby :g

with regards

Mr. Bassman

For about a year and a half, I was working a full time day job (which frequently required overtime), AND playing a regular five night a week gig.

I would actually come home many nights and practice, simply because I had no other time to do so. I remember sometimes falling asleep in the middle of exercises.

Not ideal by any means, but I suppose bad practice is better than none...
