With a little help from my parents, I entered college and then used the simple musical skills I learned in our high school band to work my way into the local college dance band and a smaller group that played Saturday nights in a night spot. The earnings weren't great, but they enabled me to get through four years and finish with an engineering degree. I concluded that, though I enjoyed the music business, I would pursue engineering as a career to make a living.
