Fun or money?

Well, we are still talking about music. Is it hobby or job? Do we do it for fun or for money? A lot of people (including half of our relatives) think that we're just doing nothing. "What is this - music? You just sing all the time?" - they ask. The answer is no. Playing music is not just singing. It is a lot of practice, exercises. But the thing is that we love to do it. We are spending time with smiles on our faces.
Then the big question became. Do we want music to be a job? Sometimes when music become a job musicians    loses their aspiration. Because it is not the same when you playing music for yourself or when you wake up every morning and learning, learning, learning. As for me I would like music to be my profession. It is awesome when your job is the best thing in your life. To be a musician means that you don't have to go in the office every day, you don't have to do paper work, you don't have to talk with people who don't understand you. The only thing you have to do is to bring yourself and your instrument to the stage.
Well half of our band is thinking that we are not ready for earning money with music. It is not a big deal. We have time. We have to play for our pleasure right now. And when everybody in the band will be ready we'll crush the stage. Or we always can earn money separate ways but we can play together for fun.
