Musician here. What is this sell? Aside from the church gig (which I do for free because they have a neat musical instrument they let me play. I can't afford one of my own and I used to teach it. I try not to brag but I am legitimately one of the top 50 players in the world, maybe 25. If I could get my hands on my own instrument I could potentially be the best but it costs like 50-100kUSD. I get two hours a week playtime and that's worth playing for them for free to me. In high school I had access to one every day and practiced two hours a day and that's how I gat gud) which I occasionally get taken out to dinner for, I busk. Just me, my friend's sax he's lending to me, a speaker with a lofi background track, and an open case. Depending on the day I can earn some very nice compliments or a cup of coffee!

A few examples off the top of my head:

  • Nine Inch Nails - Pretty Hate Machine
  • Velvet Acid Christ - Twisted Thought Generator
  • Depeche Mode - Violator
  • Stabbing Westward - Whither Blister Burn and Peel

(why yes I'm of a certain age, why do you ask?)

Hah! No back issues, thankfully. Knees and neck on the other hand... Advil for joint and sinus inflammation, Aleve for muscle aches and cramps.

Back and knees here, Aleve twice a day, Advil for flare ups. I'm pulling for ya, we're all in this together.

Linkin Park - Pretty much every song

My niece is majoring in art in college. I never thought I would become one of those old people, but I'm like damn girl, for $70K a year you should maybe be studying something practical. And this is coming from someone whose goal in life in college was to become a comic book artist.
