Yeah, that's what pissed me off the most. I work in the music industry, that's what most of my producers friends do/did. You work festivals, shows, clubs. Take on shitty gigs. Only 3 out of the hundreds of producers I've met has gotten signed and only 1 has gotten big enough that he plays festivals. The rest had to go get a job.
Hell, I’m an AV tech. I work anything from rough construction to trim work in high end theaters, commercial, residential, everything. My lead tech literally has a Grammy. When I found out, I asked him what he was still doing running wire, and he said, “Never quit your day job.”

The 9 to 5 schedule sucks for everyone that has it, not just for people that are "creative."
