thanks, now all i need is either chris to post a "hahaha, your loserness has turned them BLUE!!!"
whatever. my time will come. (pun! oooo!)
...
so i gave my first "public" performance today. I hosted the open mic night at work. I got to set up the PA, mixer, amp n mic's, intro everyone (be MC) and play with some guys and everything! I even spent my whole SLOW day at work (i did 51$ in sales, and made 16$ in tips btw) by writing a song i planned on doing tonite too! Its catchy riffage, and the lyrics were ok too, i thought!
and guess what! In true, ninja luck fashion:
no one showed up.
until 10 minutes after i played my 30 minute set.
whatever.
bite my shiny metal ass, non-existent audience. Oh wait, im not a robot.
yet.
The highlight of my day: i got like a one-on-four chat with those hot dancers from yesterday, learned where they are from how they got into it how it all works etc etc, i also got reservations for their show next saturday (i did that yesterday lol). so we'll see how that plays out.
i got paid 25$ to do the night tonite too, but the cab ride home was 20$ (goddamit.) so i've nothing to show really, in the end.
I bet that surprises no one.
i sure am glad that my life isnt defined by what i have, because i got shit.
some random guy named "gooseberry" played slide on my guitar, and totally rocked the joint. I, on the other hand, didn't even get applause-through-the-teeth (like a smile you don't mean but do politely) for the little bit i did get to play. just not good enough.
well at least i can accomplish.....wait what can i do again? by measuring it by the broad expanse of my list of successes:
(Hint: its not "winner")
Well, whatever i do, at least i...wait no i don't got style either.
hmm.
hmmmmmmm.
at least i can provide opportunities for laffing...
great.
im just a living, breathing, fart joke.
that kinda takes the wind out of one's sails.
wow, 22yrs, almost twenty-three, and what have i got to show for it? i don't even have cool scars for zombie christ's sake, they are either from dumbrunning into shit or from scratching from back in the day. or chicken pox.
i guess i know some stuff. nothing you couldn't find out elsewhere or make up on your own. after dredging through my head, you'll probably find its mostly all made up anyways....
im like in an rpg, except somehow, my cart got fuxx0red and im an NPC without any scripting.
wow, i really ain't got shit! LOL! not that i care, i just never thought about it really... wow.
how.....humiliating.
oh well! wonder what tommorow brings.
