After working at the place you're told not to by your teachers for a total of 3 days, i have come to one conclusion, i cannot let myself become one of those people. I was working in a warehouse with middle aged, depressed, foreign, half retarded people and i was more educated than my superior. If this new band does not get signed or work out how we want it to, i will apply to college and suck it up and get a real job. Living paycheck to paycheck, touring for 2 months then getting in debt constantly isn't the life i foresee for myself. i did the signed band touring thing, and i loved that it was my job, but you need to be with the right people for that to work and i just wasn't. there were a lot of reasons for giving up that band and sometimes i feel like that was my last and only chance to do what i love.
but, i have formed a new band and i have an unlimited amount of contacts from being in a signed band. musically, i feel like it can be something that is marketable and will take people by surprise(and trust me, labels sign some horrendous bands ;) ) so this is it. my final attempt at a dream i have had since i first picked up a set of drum sticks, listened to a hardcore band, got behind a drumset. and if it doesn't work out, it wasn't meant to happen. i will find something else i feel passionate about, educate myself, get a degree, and stop being a burden on everyone in my life.
