Hey, Whats up artists? How is your musical journey going, Good? or Not so Good? Maybe a bit of BOTH? Yeah I totally understand, it seems every time you get into a position of potential growth, whether if your endeavor may be fame and/or Fortune, we get hit with a cost, a huge cost, a cost that we were not expecting. e.g. Marketing/advertising cost, equipment fixes, maintenance, additions, traveling, bills bills and more bills need I go on?
Sometimes it is literally impossible to cover all of those costs, especially as an up and comer and income from gigs, record and merch sales are very scarce if even existent at all. Well DAMN....what to do, what to do....I myself, had to go back to work into an industry I absolutely hated..but hey, I needed the cash to fund my dream of being a ROCKSTAR!! ;) But what I did not expect, is the long days of work, and eventually between work, family and sleep (which unfortunately is needed to LIVE) there was absolutely zero time left for my music...my dream..and if I worked miracles to fit in an hr of creative time...that hr eventually turned into the last 10 mins trying to cram notes into sequence and vomit whatever lyrics I could muster, needless to say every single thing I composed was exactly that....vomit, I mean literally my fans/supporters would cringe at the sounds of myself forcing these chunks of regurgitated nonsense onto whatever surface was available. I soon realized that I had two options...quite this BS job or quite my dream and I don't know about you, but if your anything like me, you LIVE BY THIS QUOTE "Never Give up what you cannot go a day without". I cannot go a day without making music, trust me I've tried and felt that void (no Bueno), so I was left with only one decision...QUITE THE BS JOB!!
It was a terrifying thought, so many questions; how will I survive? Pay for this and pay for that? And of course the ultimate question, how in the hell am I going to fund this dream of mine??? And my friend these are the questions that have brought me to why I am writing this entertaining heap of incredulous hopefully useful information ., I want to share with you my journey.......I will share anything and everything that helps...all the positives minus the BS and false presentation.
Wish ME LUCK!!!
