All of her friends were like "so Megan...how do you feel about your parents meeting Rick?"
Of course she was concerned. I'm me.
So uh...yeah. By about 10 AM...I was already 5 car bombs deep. I had already been kicked out of a bar.
So about 3 PM I meet her parents. Things go really well. Kind of. Her last boyfriend was a mute around the parents so they appreciated me actually talking to them and being somewhat personable.
6 PM.
Wasted. I'm so drunk...we're basically both passed out on her couch...and legend goes...somehow I had a bloody nose. I have no idea why. So I'm sitting on her couch, picking 'bloody boogars' out of my nose...and wiping them on her arm.
In front of her parents.
anyone care to guess why I'm always single?
I have a lot of fun Megan stories. She put up with a lot of shenanigans. We're still quite fond of one another.

I don't want to get patronizing on you or anything... but I will:
You're already, by your own admission, heading into the creepy older dude who hangs around with young people realm. It's still working for you, but there's going to come a point where it won't work anymore and you'll truly be the creepy older dude who still thinks he's 21.
I have quite a few friends (many of them who are musicians) who worked this route for quite a few years (I'll confess I was sometimes jealous of them, because they were living fun, carefree lives and often with young, hot chicks) ... but now they're in their mid to late 30s, and they're pretty pathetic.
They work odd jobs, have zero professional experience, and no women in their peer group who are worth dating are very interested in them. They've also passed the age of being appealing to the younger chicks. Most of them now have substance abuse (alcohol or other things) issues and just seem live a pretty sad existence.
It sounds like you're heading in the right direction with your work and such, but just have a little bit of thought about planning for the long term.
