I use 2 bags also, but I double plie them for strenght. The volume has stayed constant. Drummer, female vocalists, songwriter....seems to be a theme of poverty. Are you one of those musical people? Female vocalist at the door...I don't.... lost?
No, not a musician. I can barely play the radio. However, have a great admiration for them and in my previous life of long, lost youth spent a good amount of time around musicians of various stripes and degrees of success. But that's a long story. Hence, all the ancient music industry jokes.
So, the answer: You can always tell there's a female vocalist at your door because she can't find her key and she doesn't know when to come in.
And for the record, I don't think the economy is going to crash and burn '29 style. However, I do believe there's going to be a serious wake up call. Unemployment up to 10% and the value of homes lopped off by 20 or 30% in over hyped areas of the country. But that's assuming the dollars don't come flooding back in fro overseas. If that happens -- people start dumping dollars -- then all bets are off.
