    Hi Aaron, admire your positive attitude especially after that cleaning fee robo-response BS

      I’m still a bit salty about it! But, it provided some interesting fodder for this video. If I keep growing my audience and as revenue, these maddening scenarios could actually profit me. All I need is about 100k more viewers and I’ll break seven! 😂🤣😭

    Haahaha... I 'm to old for this s...t... just wait. I wont even tell you... 2 tribute bands sub gigs, 1 recording band ( with kids in their mid 20's) & rehearsals. I' m older than the freakin' dinosaurs. I can still handle 90 -120 min sets with a 15 break & then the next set equally as long. Yeah 4 hours straight on Broadway, kudos to you man, a young man's game. Lucky I'm able to handle a Thursday Friday Saturday gig sched. But I stll have prep homework on Sunday & back in my office /studio maybe later that night for the following night. Eat well stay in shape where possible can the booze, ( ok maybe a brew or glass of wine, forget the boubon & other brown booze, that's a body killer. hey @JoelCepin

      It is both grueling and rewarding! There's no way I could do this if I worked a 9-5!

    You still need a door stop for your door while loading in.

    Yes, when im looking for touring advice, I always consult young men fresh out of high school who have never been on an actual major tour but rather drove across state lines to play with someone no one has heard of. We don't ride in vans on real tours.
    Young man, stop trying to put the cart before the horse. Leave the advice to those who have actually done something.

    Lyft fee for clelaning the car?? WTF is that. Don't passengers leave dust & dirt on the floor mats, from shoes? Multiply that by the number of calls he gets. Do you need to be in hazmat suit if your clothes are not spankin' clean from the wash & dryer. Driver was a putz indeed.

      They saiid I damaged/dirtied it with my drum cases (which were literally brand new and had never been out). It's frustrating. The driver's are trying their best to make a living in a system that takes advantage of them. I'm trying my best to use temporary transportation in a system that takes advantage of me. The way I view it, I can't be mad at the individuals for a systemic problem. There's only so many battles we can fight!

      Have you considered working in finance and/or starting a podcast?
