I dont make music for €

I am a trainer in ICT, i work for the dutch government mostly, MCSE, CISCO, LPI, COMPTIAA and ITIL.. Which makes me more then enough € to pay for my hobbies, making music and riding my mountainbike.

During one of the worst time of my life; divorce time, I would take my guitar out of the case – set up the PA – get everything ready for the job -- and for 4 hours I was happy / alive, not a negative thought.

PS, Donny you are so right.

I program video games for Xbox and Sony Playstation and also work on slot machine games.

I work as an external consultant for Yamaha Corporation of America (on going for almost 4 years now), writing the projects(for the new expansions), also part of the team that process and develop the new content for the Expansion Packs for the arrangers, and now began working in something similar also on workstations like the Motif XF, also part of the team that does the Marketing, Demo and sales training for the music stores in USA.

I played Tenor Sax in a band from Junior year in high school with a band for about 25 years. Played just about every type of venue you could think of. Then jobs and family became priority for each of us.

From college until now I've worked in the computer software business as a Systems Analyst, Security Auditor, Corporate Software Trainer, Director of Corporate Education, Marketing Director, VP of Operations.

Played the sax on off by myself for years with backing tapes and then CDs but wasn't the same without the band. Then in 2008 I sold my Tenor and bought an Arranger Keyboard. Taught myself how to play it. Traded up to a Tyros 3 and then added a Motif. Found that I enjoyed writing and recording music.

Still working as VP of Operations but not for long. Retiring at the end of the year. More time to play, write and record music.

I'm thinking of trying FreeLance Gynecology ... or maybe hand fitting bras. Thoughts?

I've had many real jobs over the years. For a while I picked fly specks out of pepper. Then I worked at a hospital in the department that circumcised babies. It didn't pay much but I got a lot of tips. For the last 23 years I have taught computer classes at a local college.
