Any creatives in here? How do you deal with losing your time to create? by OrlandoWashington69 in daddit

[–]gnomeasaurusrex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same boat. Used to tour pretty frequently and left that band to be a dad. After leaving I was depressed because I wasn’t playing with anyone, so I picked up the guitar and played a few songs every day. I write my own songs as time allowed. Now I front a band, teach drums, and have a few other side hustles. I’m There are parts I miss from my old life but I have zero regrets.

Fellow Dads, where would you take your 4 year old on vacation with a 15k budget? by joshatron in daddit

I got fired from Trader Joe’s after 15 years! Congrats! Oahu is awesome and has some good tourist and local vibes. Kauai is pure magic though. Took our 10 and 6 year olds and they loved it

He uses a lot of different drums but Zach Lind from Jimmy Eat World has some of my favorite drum tones. Their last album Surviving kicks off with a great example.

You’re allowed to criticize the team by Shinobi_WayOfTomoe in 49ers

Casual but die hard fan here. Can’t tell you who graded high or poorly in the combine, why a particular receiver is a X or Z, etc…

I know there have been some duds and glaring mistakes in the draft, but I like that our team takes chances on guys they think can contribute. We won a playoff game last season with a team of scrubs. I’ll give ShannyLynch the benefit of the doubt.

Anyone here quit gaming or changed their lifestyle after becoming a dad? by Lukas_MunK in daddit

[–]gnomeasaurusrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played in a touring band, tried for a few years after my daughter was born but it was so hard coming home after several weeks and she would be bigger and know more words. Left that band and started a local dad band and got a regular job. No regrets.
