This is me, except I perform in public at least twice a week. But after years of playing in bands, I'm now solo. I love performing. I get a kick out of seeing people sing along and enjoy the show. It's fun knowing you've somehow brightened someone's day..
But the things above you describe are why I went solo. I do occasional shows with another signer and/or percussionist, but it's so nice playing when, where, how, what I want and not having to deal with the drama that usually exists any time you're working with others!
