I've been in an almost identical situation, although mine had less band and more drinking. Regardless, just hitting the high points this is my guess how she's seeing it

-You're out a couple nights a week

-You're drinking

-You're spending more that what she thinks is an appropriate amount of time with your friends and not "your family"

-She doesn't get to do anything

I don't know what your normal home life is like, but are you spending time together when you are there? Or is this more of a "she's doing her thing while you sit on CP" situation. Just sounds to me like she wants more attention, and this is a good trigger to set it off. If I've learned one thing in my life, what a woman tells you she's mad at you about it rarely what it really is. Of course, I've known some trainwrecks.
