Finding the time!!!

I picked up my guitar for the first time in a couple of weeks and was really let down with how bad I let my playing get. It felt as though I was learning to play all over again. I started playing back in 1999 and was really serious about it for about 5 years. At one point a guy from livewire offered me a job playing 3 nights a week at the local dives, but I had to refuse. I wasn't really into playing the top 40's stuff if you know what I mean.

Back in 2004 I became the proud father of twin girls and haven't really been able to find the time to play anymore. Between the wife, kids, and 60 hours a week at the office I just can't seem to work playing into my schedule.

What really sucks is that it is the one thing I was always really passionate about. If anyone out there can give me any ideas on how to find the time I would sureley appreciate it!

Joe- I was bummed to find out you were so close to my home town in early November. I hope you guys make back to Arizona again. I would love to catch a live show. I used to play a caouple of sets with nothing but songs from Flying in a Blue Dream and the Extremist. Any technique tips you could offer would be awesome.

Happy New Year to all of you out there in Satchland!

In regards to the pocket POD, a friend of mine bought one and let me borrow it. I agree that there are a lot of neat sounds preset in there. The only thing I recommend is attaching an EQ pedal to it. The sound is pretty raw when it is used alone, but with the EQ pedal it makes for some pretty nice tones!
