Women may be draw to musicans but one thing is definitely clear.Musicans are the leaders in instability. Since their careers often a like yo-yos going up and down so goes their personal relationships for the most part. Any woman or girl who decides to get involved with a musican needs to realizethat the relationship will most likely be a bumpy one. If she can not handle the constant mood swings then she needs to avoid musicans at all cost.
So, nix on anyone from the National Symphony Orchestra?


Guess I'll drop the plan to start hanging around the Kennedy Center stage door...lol.


(But, you are painting with a mighty broad brush, I think...)

I've had a lot of women approach me because they think I look like a rock star, lol! I guess there is something to be said about it...and I do know that I get a lot more attention when I'm on a Harley vs. hanging out in my work clothes. Appearance and attitude I suppose.

Nope - most of the richest men in the world do not marry supermodels. It could be either most supermodels do not dig money as much, the richest men only use them for sex, or both

Yes, I so much agree with you. And when you are a young woman who hangs out with men like this, you somehow feel like their 'aura' will rub off on you... it's like you walk into a room with a musician and you can feel everyone looking at you and admiring you, thinking you must be somehow special because you are 'with the band.' (I know that sounds totally childish and superficial! But when you are only 22 and you haven't yet seen a lot of the world... well, it can happen.)
This is very true! I was married to a musician. We met when I was a teen. It was very glamorous and exciting and cool to be "with the band" in your teens and twenties. The glamour wore off for me over the years. If the band doesn't practice at your place, you'll hardly ever see your guy. It's also really not that pleasant to have band practice in your basement that's so loud you can't do anything in the rest of the house. It's much more pleasant to watch a band perform on stage than to listen to the same 10 second riff over and over and over and over while they get it right. It's much more fun to be able to dance with your guy while the band is playing than to be at the 'band widows' table watching your guy on stage and applauding for the same song you've heard them play 100 times. It's really not so glamorous to have to get there early to set up and to stay so gawd awful late while they tear down after. Oh, and your entire social life will focus around their gigs.

No... no more rock stars for me. My profile even says so. You'd be surprised how many still want to convince me otherwise, and are incredulous when I tell them "no."

I must admit; when my band plays shows I do get a lot of attention. Hooked up a few times, but not really what I am looking for. Even asking for autogrpahs and we are not even a signed band. LOL

Guess it is the whole, ok .....he writes all the music (we are all original and getting kinda popular in my area)...he has a lot of energy and interacts with the crowd and audience etc. I don't sing, I just play guitar and write all the riffs and arrangements. I guess women find that attractive. Maybe it is the creativity.

Another thing I notice that they seem love is when I drop the "I hate watching sports" Right way they view me as this sensitive artist LOL, when in reality I just write catchy songs and love playing. But sports on TV just bores the Sh$t out me.I wish we could play shows every week LOL

Hmm, while I can think of a number of VERY wealthy men who are married to women with no particular "name" or status. I can certainly list a bunch that did marry women who had "beauty" associated to their celebrity whether they were in the modeling business or not.

You basically sleep all day and only go out at night - so every night is like a dress-up party, with plenty of make-up, perfume, alcohol and whatever else you might like to try... The musicians I knew were constantly drunk and stoned... but when you are young you think they are very funny and exciting. They certainly kept me entertained; for a time. It's like one big teenage costume party/slumber party that doesn't seem to end. You drink, dance and listen to music constantly.


Yeah that, been there one that. Lots of fun. But now I would not be interested in a muscian that acutally made his money as a muscian. It is a wild life for a 40-50 year old and from what I can see a hard one. All the musicians I know, even if they make enough money to live on still work a "day" job for health insurance so they are exhausted all the time, or they have to give up on playing out due to exhaustion and get a good day job which pisses them off.

I have dated a few professional musicians made good money but the no health insurance thing is a pain in the butt. They both had not so stressful day jobs for insurance and played out all the time to make their real money. Tired and smoking cigarettes and drinking, but not alcoholics. I have to say I can't imagine either of them could ever love a woman as much as they love their instruments.

After those couple experiences it hit me that I have known many people in love with their instruments to the point I dont think a spouse could ever be first. Not so for singers. I have not seen one that was in love with their voice so much so I am thinking maybe its better to be involved with a singer. So I put that question to a close friend of mine who is a day job for insurance guy and a night time singer and has been forever and will be forever, and has intentionally made no ties, no one dependent on him, no spouse, kids etc. He couldn't stop laughing over that one. He said, OMG how could you say that when you know me so well? We arent in love with our voices, we are in love with OURSELVES! LOL
