When people think of rock and roll bands, often the concept comes to mind of three or four or five buddies gathering together to write music, become famous and tour the world. But what doesn’t jump to mind is the idea that a band can also be a collection of hard workers and that the job of being a musician is just that: work.

But when a tour was done or a studio session was over, they went back to their separate lives. They weren’t vacationing together like bosom buddies—that is, according to the group’s bassist and multi-instrumentalist, John Paul Jones.
