Guy in a band here, and I think it’s more on the dude to make sure it’s clear that she doesn’t have to come to every show to qualify as a supportive SO. My wife comes to about 1 out of 4 shows and that’s plenty. She’s heard us play it all before, I’m too busy to hang out with her much, it’s loud and takes forever, it…
