Okay, the presses of I Get Deep came on tuesday, I have them at Uncle Sams on South Beach right now. I'm working on Grooveman on South Beach, DanceRecords.com, Juno.co.uk, SatelliteRecords.com, Vinyl Mania in NYC, and I'm going to take some with me to Detroit to see if I can get anyone interested in the stores up there. I have to clear this stock or it's going to take me under. Also I want to sell them out in a hurry so we have more funds for this party. Given the current situation I don't think there will be a follow-up anyway, and I think I can make the money back with the party so I think that's the best way to go. I just hope I know what I'm doing. I've never claimed to be any good at any of these things, but someone has to be the leader and I don't see anyone else stepping up to do it, not that I blame them...this must be the most stressful job on earth. There's literally tens of thousands of dollars at stake on this party. If it flops, I'll have to close the label. I don't know what i'm thinking the miami scene never comes out, that's why this will be the biggest warehouse party miami has seen in years, noone does parties like this because they know better. I just hope my stupidity and taste for excess pays off again this time. But reality's setting in...maybe it's just sleep deprivation. I love how after I spend 1500 dollars to get a single pressed both of the producers come up to me and tell me that "it's good, but not anthem quality" thanks a bunch...assholes. New company policy, I fire indecisive people on spot...you make your decision and you stick to it. I've been chasing this pipe dream of a project since March, and I'm still waxing optimistic, probably a result of aforementioned stupidity, but someone has to be stupid or progress will never happen. You have to take risks in this field, and everyone else around here is too busy fucking their girlfriends and too goddam indecisive to make the decisions I'm left with. I'm going to make this release and this event blow up, just to prove once and for all that i'm not a fuckup. I got a B on the physics test.
