What’s one thing you know now that would have saved your younger self a lot of pain?

Don’t hold your life up for anyone!

I had a girlfriend in my late teens that was somewhat manipulative and that resulted in me not doing what I wanted to do. I wanted to go to rock shows and she wanted me not to go. Naively wanting to keep her happy resulted in me missing gigs that I can no longer replicate for various reasons.

Life obviously got better I met my wife etc, but man I wish I could shout at that kid to go and do what he wants to do!

How about you?

    Oh, that’s a tough question to answer. I have SO much advice I’d give to my younger self. But I think the main thing would be – don’t be afraid to be yourself. Don’t try to please others or try to live up to their expectations.

    That would have saved me a lot of anxiety and stress.
