Art has a lot more suffering in it rather than "retraining". The hardest thing about music is "keeping fresh". There's a tendency to get to a certain level and then milk that level (in the Pro ranks anyway). That's why you see so many "reunion" tours happening lately.
In general, if you're an artist, you keep playing until you die and very little of it is "planned" out. Luckily, I'm a performer and I'm not afraid to continue to improve. It'll be fun in my new environment. Believe it or not, there's a more vibrant and accessible music scene in Tucson than there is in the S.F. area -- and they pay better. Onward and Upward...
