A victim of the economy..sort of...

A few days ago I was let go from my day job. They stated it was because of "Budgetary issues" and that they had a need for someone with a "More applicable skill set". The truth is , I got laidoff because I had too much going on. That day job was suffering because I was working nights and not caring about work the next day. Showing up late , and just wasn't doing very well at my gig. Even with that being said , I was still bummed. I really liked most of the people there. But its time to move on...

I am now in the market for a full time live mixing gig. Thats the new deal. No more spreadhseets if I dont have to. Just mixing. It's a little scary, but it is very exciting. Change is good for me and good for my sanity.

Dude 4am....suck

Last night I worked at bottom of the hill doing the door. Pretty rad. I made about 40 bucks in tips (sick) and hung out with a friend I haven't seen in ages. Too bad I am not going to be there for the rest of April...My schedule is getting crazy. I am working for the Brava theater doing a show that runs until the end of April , on top of the day job...so B.O.T.H may be out for the month of april...

In other news I think I might shave my beard today...shit is getting out of control..

Listening to :

Texas is The Reason - S/T EP
Coalesce - Supernaught (Sabbath Cover)
ETID - The Big Dirty
Mineral - S/T

Long days...and even longer nights...

Last night I worked at Bottom Of The Hill and had a blast. I love that place. Seriously the people there are like a second family. So nice and accommodating. The bands that were playing were pretty good , at times, and gave me a run for my money when it came time to set up.

Tonight its off to meet a new perspective employer to let me mix there. :-) Then its a late night LPM meeting with Fight Pretty's manager. Hes a good dude , and hes got some killer ideas.

I am kind of excited...

Currently listening to:

TGUK - Like a Man Possessed.
Slayer - South of Heaven
Dustin Kensrue - Please Come Home.
