Loud music frying our eardrums
Heavy speakers straining our backs and bodies
Late nights turning our sleeping patterns around
Performing in smoky rooms breathing second hand smoke
Drunk people spraying saliva in our ears requesting crap songs.
Forgetting what it feels like to "be a punter" an go out and enjoy a weekend.




.



Yet still we love this job we do. We all need a pay rise for enduring what we have to :D

Not a lot you can add to that really....

Second hand smoke is OK, 'till next year when I give up...

You forgot being kissed by over amerous drunk women (nearly always make Bella Emberg look attractive) for playing their request for them.

These days I do my best to baracade myself in so they can't get to me.

Being a John Thompson look-a-like I get my fair share of these too :omg:

You've got to have a certain amount of roughage in your daily allowance!

Banging your head on the roof of the van as you load the gear.
Terminal boredom levels at weddings, playing same old-same old.
Driving home in the summer as it's getting light....body says sleeeeep...brain says WAKE UP!

1. Not another Xmas party with turkey, carrots, ............ and Slade.

2. Do I have to tell the guests, for the umpteenth time, to take their drinks off the dance floor, because we don't want any accidents and I had a wet shower before I came out this evening.

3. Can I de-rig this equipment quicker than last time.
