Always Happens in The Kid Used To Dream

I have a busy and hectic day on Wednesday and here I am wide awake. I was supposed to be in bed 3 hours ago. I’ve laid my phone down, turned off the television - did all the Jedi mind tricks I can think of and here I am.

Thought I would post and entry in hopes it would trigger the sandman into pouring an entire bucket on my head - so far - not.

So, what’s on my mind?

For one, I have a record that I have had finished but the producer and the record company are stalling. They are sitting on it. I’m losing followers and potential gigs because this thing is sitting there. My management company has already paid for things to be done and can’t budget for the marketing until they complete it. I’m frustrated. My team is frustrated. Legally, there’s nothing I can do. I’m told - wait.

Maybe waiting will make it better.

Waiting is difficult when you know there’s gigs being missed. The entire process makes me second guess whether I’m supposed to be doing this - but then, I realize that if it were easy and without challenge I probably wouldn’t fight to make it happen. There probably wouldn’t be as much passion.

I remember my stepdad telling me when I first started pursuing music - you should focus on a real job! I did that too. For a while, I have worked 2 and 3 jobs while recording. I wouldn’t have landed the deal I got without something to show for it.

Okay - getting that off my chest makes my eyes heavy.

G’night
