Judge By Day, Rock Singer By Night

[Publius pro tem]

Well, that's a whole 'nother thread.

Hah!
Yeah, no kidding!

That article is about my wife.

Good on ya!

I no longer work for the paper.

The article states AZ Central - you're not there either?

(I have no idea the degree of separation between the AZ Republic newspaper and the AZ Central website.)

Damn - how old is this story?

How is one a full time judge and "out on the road" at the same time?

Incredibly driven people just seem to make things happen, she's one of them. There's 15 or so pages of live videos on YouTube, you can see where we've been.

Some good chopping you got going on in "Move in Tight", brotha.

Thanks Thump!

I no longer work for AZ Republic, azcentral or Gannett. This story came out last Sunday in the AZ Republic.

 

[Publius pro tem]

Yeah, okay.

I knew Gannett was the owner of the Republic.
I never looked into how it actually dove-tailed with AZ Central, KPNX 12, etc.

Good luck to you in your professional vocation, be it guitar-slingin' or media.

I'll need to come out and see you guys play some time.

I see tons of other things in those 15 pages that aren't you, and I see tons of local Arizona gigs, but I see a couple in France as well? Very cool you got to get your music out of the country.

When someone says, "out on the road" I usually take it to mean coast to coast tours, or coastal tours, which generally doesn't work with having a real, full time career.

Glad to see you're finding a way to make it work. I couldn't do that, I generally have to play full time and only do 'real' work when I absolutely have to.

While you guys are online debating what masters she can or can't serve, she's (we're) out on the road serving them.

I no longer work for the paper.

Carry on.

That's your WIFE?! You lucky sombitch.

 

[Kamen_Kaiju]

[ed1996]

I'm pretty sure the guitarist for the love me nots is on this forum

 

[Publius pro tem]

Really?

Ya don't say...

It's cool to see people following their dreams.
Although I was reminded of a scene from A Mighty Wind.
Go to 2:25 and see what I mean, if you don't know.

But real life is cooler.

 

[PapaSquash]

I see cheeta77 is here already. I recognized the band name from a photo of his on the "you and your les paul on stage" thread.

Anybody can rock out, everybody in my band has a straight job.

It is VERY American to serve two masters. Indeed, the American psychological pattern—as evidenced by our national heroes and narratives—has always been to overcome such dichotomies, to blend the “outlaw” and “the law” together. This from Robert B. Ray’s essay The Thematic Paradigm”:

“The parallel existence of these two contradictory traditions [the outlaw hero and the official hero] evinced the general pattern of American mythology: the denial of the necessity for choice. In fact, this mythology often portrayed situations requiring decision as temporary aberrations from American life's normal course. By discouraging commitment to any single set of values, this mythology fostered an ideology of improvisation, individualism, and ad hoc solutions for problems depicted as crises. American writers have repeatedly attempted to justify this mythology in terms of material sources. Hence, Irving Howe's ‘explanation’:

It is when men no longer feel that they have adequate choices in their styles of life, when they conclude that there are no longer possibilities of honorable maneuver and compromise, when they decide that the time has come for "ultimate" social loyalties and political decisions— it is then that ideology begins to flourish. Ideology reflects a hardening of commitment, the freezing of opinion into system.... The uniqueness of our history, the freshness of our land, the plenitude of our resources—all these have made possible, and rendered plausible, a style of political improvisation and intellectual free-wheeling."

Alas, given the number of ideological eunuchs one bumps into here and elsewhere these days, it seems this trend toward compromise in American culture may have run its course.

Rock on, Judge. You set a good example for us all.

You have to have a hobby or interest outside of your job to keep you from going crazy. I call that "Mentally Shifting Gears".

If you hang out after work with the same people you work with and "talk shop" all the time (and drinkin') you will eventually go crazy or experience extreme job burnout.

My hobbies aren't even slightly related to what my day job is and they are the reasons I can smile when stupid sh*t happens at work.

 

[Tenacious T]

Judge, singer, band....Love it.

They have a great vibe goin' on. Well done!

My dad tells me to do that all the time. Get a job in something you dont mind going to everyday and can enjoy, but dont make your hobbies work because they become that.....work

She Judges people all day.
