It paid off though, he plays in the San Fransisco Symphony now. He got in right out of college which was a major achievement.

LOL I was talking to a friend of mine who knows John Pattitucci (very famous bass player for those who dont know) and John makes A LOT of money playing music, and HE had to take out a $250,000 to pay for a bass he couldnt take care of himself LOL. Its ridiculous. The best thing about being in a famous symphony, is whenever you sign to them, you get a no limit business credit card. And they say "Ok go out and buy whatever expensive instrument you want." No Joke.
