This is actaully a thing which kinda interest me most about MA right now. I know Dave V is working for Dean Guitars (a warehouse worker) But whatabout the other members. Does anybody know what Trey and Pete do for living?
EDIT: Yes, outside the band ofcourse!

I also would like to know much more about their personal life. But about job, I suppose now they are enough famous and rich for NOT having a normal job.
this is what i think , but not sure of course.

As far as I know, Trey's , aka George Emanuelle III's family has fuckloads of money, that much that even if he weren't a (biig) part of commercially successful band, he wouldn't have to do 9-5 job in order to survive.

A warehouse worker? That doesn't sound very promising.
I bet Pete gives drums lessions
yeah, his hourly rate is probably something like 1gr (of cocaine)

I thought Dave also owned a record company or is that from way way back when they met? I'm pretty sure they don't have day jobs, I didn't hear any of them say: "man, this sucks, got to go back to work on monday"
I'm pretty sure they make (or have made) enough money to live of and the tour tickets and t-shirt sales are still going well. 2 full houses it looked here in Bris & Sydn and some t-shirt sold out pretty fast.

I really hope none of them have to work day jobs, It's just really depressing for me to think about..

Dammit, forgot to add question mark. I know that Dave works there for sure, but I'm not 100 % sure what he does. My quess is that he is in the warehouse doing something. Polishing frets maybe :ff:

You'd be amazed how much money people in most bands don't make; read Tom Warrior's 'Are You Morbid?' book about Celtic Frost for some eye-opening situations.

as Svartmetall said. The choice of metal music as job is not synonimous of making easy money. Few are the metal bands that really can live ONLY with their music.

most likely. For ex. Chuck Schuldiner had some simple Toyota although Death sold decent amount of album copies, he didn't have insurance to cover his medical treatment (tribute shows are being held even nowadays because his family is still in debts).
Cannibal corpse are doing it full time literally, they have rehearsals like 6 days a week, almost like footbal/soccer teams. And they are most successful. It's pretty obvious there's no much money in metal these days, MA's price is like 10 000 euros per show tho (festival price), or so I've heard. And they are Death metal mainstream.

Considering the fact that I live in Tampa and met the big names in Death Metal at the bar I go to (The Brass Mug). I can tell you that CC had only recently been getting a good amount of money. Rob Barrett's girlfriend told me that they have seen a big increase in money coming in the past couple of years. The whole band are by far nowhere near being rich, but they are making a descent amount of money and are abled to pay the bills.
I know that Erik Rutan owns and run a studio around St. Pete (from what I can recall I believe in Seminole)
As for Dave working at Dean Guitars, I'll have to ask my fellating lover who works at said. Once I get the answer that he actually works there, I'll tell you all.

One problem with aion gold playing online poker is that you can't see your opponents' faces. Poker is as much about bluffing as it is who has the best hand and thus, being MS Mesos able to read the other players' expressions and body language is a vital part of a winning strategy. But you can't do this in an online game, so you have to rely on other clues, or "tells", as to how strong or weak your Cheap WARHAMMER ONLINE GOLD opponent's hand is. One way you can do this is to use "betting tells" or reading how your opponent bets.There are three types of such tells: how long your opponent takes to make his bet, how much EVE Online ISK he bets, and his use of the 'in-turn' secretary of state cube (used by players playing more than one game at a time). For example, if he pauses before he makes his bet, he may possess a weak hand. If you play with particular opponents EVE ISK long enough, you can detect patterns in their tells that you can exploit.[/quote]
Fuck you. Fuck you completely.
Anyway, it's just hard to picture the elite David Vincent sweating and grunting in a warehouse, or his supervisor yelling, "Hey Vincent, I don't care if you're Mr. Fucking Morbid Angel--move your dead ass! Are those basses and guitars going to stack themselves?"

On the old board it was mentioned that David used to own a sexshop.

He worked in one while he was younger, didn't own it.
At least that's what Choosing Death says.
