Build It & They Will Come...Maybe

It's Monday night and I just finished one of my two long days for this week.
I work two jobs on Monday and Wednesday.
The job market is so crummy here that I have to work two
jobs to come close to getting enough money to make it.

I am excited about my music again. That is a real good thing.
I finished my promo package this past weekend and I also created an online press kit at
Sonic Bids.
It seems to be the way of the future. They also work it the other way with people looking for talent. Those opportunities get posted and you pay a fee to apply. I guess it will be worth it down the road a bit. It is time to start getting some gigs and get out there and play the stuff for awhile. I originally thought I would make the new CD first. I could use that to pave the way. However that project seems to always take one step forward and two steps back. Now there is an idea for a song..
. This will be a whole new experience playing solo.
I tried a couple of times already and the second time was alot better than the first.
The whole thing feels stronger to me now. I am looking forward to it.
