I would rather have fresh chops and still be able to play at 50,60,70 while getting better practicing 3-4 hours a day. You need not look far to hear the stories about players who aren't playing anymore. Why did their chops give out? We don't know for sure but I would guess they hammered their faces for years. For me practicing 6 hours a day for two years so I could get a "job" isn't worth what that could do to my chops later on. So by making this statement does that mean that I just need an excuse to not practice as much? I am getting better everyday, my mental and physical health with regards to the horn are very strong. Say what you will, I for one don't equate success with having a "job."
