I am a part time musician... I played in a rock band when I was in my twenties.... for many years since I left the band I did very few appearances ( except at parties with friends), In year 2000 I went to a train station in West VA to pick up train schedule, and then I learned that a group of musicians there met for acoustic bluegrass and irish music jamming. That was it, soon I joined them each Wednesday at the station and on Thursdays at The General Store in Shepherdstown which is is a college town and soon after I was performing in open mikes all over the tri-state area
