WHY DON'T YOU GET A REAL JOB - "Start Before You're Ready"

From Canada's East Coast. Drums and more. Your host has studied jazz, toured in an indie band, taught, DJ'd, barista'd, busked, once trained as a "Sales Architect" at a call centre on the advice of a guy who picked him up hitch-hiking. Before that, he was the bassist in a hard rock band for like 2 weeks. He tried smoking a cigarette on stage. It stung his eyes.
