For A Better Second Half

Dear Midlifers,

The name of the band was inspired by Bob Burford’s bestseller, “Halftime”. I would highly recommend this wonderful book to anyone, especially for those who are approaching their midlife. An excerpt from the Amazon summary of this book reads: “Midlife.. is actually an opportunity to begin the better half of life. The first half is busy with ‘getting and gaining, earning and learning,’ doing what you can to survive, while clawing your way up the ladder of success. The second half of life should be about regaining control, calling your own shots, and enjoying ‘God’s desire.’ What lies between the two is ‘halftime.’”

I am a dentist by profession, a musician at heart. Turning the corner of my own midlife, I’ve decided to organize a musical band. Why choose to start a band in my personal halftime? First, it is the thing that I always wanted in my first half but never had a chance to try. Secondly, I realized that music is a gift from heaven that can help people enrich their lives. And I’d love to see people, including myself, happier. How wondrous that I can serve others simply by doing what I like! I was just too busy to do so in my first half. 

Join me. If you are like me and love music and people, let’s do this together. I need vocalists, instrumentalists, band staff (e.g. sound engineer, stage coordinator, etc.) and more. My goal is to establish a great musical team in which we are more than happy to help others feel happy. For details about the current recruitment please click here.

Together, let’s build a great musical community of happiness!

Yours Truly!
