Well today I decided to quit my band. It's been something that's been on my mind since my second daughter was born 3 months ago. Having 2 Kids under 2 years makes it almost impossible to dedicate enough time to rehearsing, gigging and learning songs. It's sad but in a way I feel a load has been lifted off my shoulders.

I got a great experience playing regular gigs and got a whole new perspective on playing guitar. But I have to say I've missed just been able to sit on my own with my guitar and jam. Every moment I got with my guitar while in the band was dedicated to learning songs, many of which I didn't particularly like.

It's funny I know lots of folks who are sick and tired of playing on their own and would give their right arm to be in a band, and here I am doing the opposite!! Am I a freak?
