How many coders, devs, programmmers, IT peeps, technical design folks are also musicians and/or seriously in pursuit of music lifelong? Curious to know as for more than 30 years in tech I see a lot of crossover.

I have my degree in Music Education, but got my first gig out of college as a software developer when I couldn’t find a teaching gig. Took many years off playing seriously, but started a band again about 5 years ago.

I'm glad you are going back Matt. I took a lot of time off as well because most of us got into the web. Even with the lovely gift of a Martin Backpacker from Aaron Gustafson? impossible to travel with musical instruments and it fell away. Also back to music myself since covid.

Yeah, when I was in Sales Engineering travel-land, there was no time or energy for that. For me it took settling in after the birth of my kid and realizing I needed the occasional distraction / adult-only time (outside work). My dad bowled once a week, and I have a band.
