I do 100 shows a year, but I do it in fits and starts, as opposed to going on a long run.
I never looked at the consequences of missing a big shot... when you think about the consequences you always think of a negative result.
I figure I wrote 37 songs in 20 years, and that's not exactly a full-time job. It wasn't that I was writing and writing and writing and quit. Every now and then I wrote something, and every now and then I didn't. The second just outnumbered the first.
