Audio - Post Divorce


Audio has definitely been more fun and rewarding post-divorce. No more keeping equipment in the trunk of my car waiting for my wife to leave the house so I could sneak the gear in because once its in the rack, she never ever noticed it.

I also have a greater appreciation of music and can definitely live with a lot less. I also believe that after you go through life's trials and tribulations and difficulties, whether it's a death in the family, loss of job, surviving cancer, divorce or other life's hardships you definitely get to appreciate things much more.

Please feel free to share if you can relate to this or if you can't. Thanks for reading :)

I got divorced in the early 70's after 10 years and was devastated especially losing the kids. I couldn't afford a lawyer so negotiated my own property settlement wherein I got the stereo and records and she got everything else. The music got me through it all and helped me come back to the world of the living in time. Every one I knew thought I was nuts for doing it, and they were right. I figured out that good rock and roll, blues, and jazz helped keep me crazy - without music I would go completely sane!

FWIW, We remarried just this past September and music is a big part of our new lives together.
