First Post

This is my first post to my new blog. I have had a few blogs before, but I slowly stopped updating them once in college. Now that I have graduated from college I figured I would start off fresh. If you couldn't tell by the name of this blog, I am a musician. I didn't study music in college, I studied communications and film, but I have been playing music since I was a little kid. In High School I tried to start a few bands, which at first seemed like an easy task because I could play drums and guitar but it turned out to be quite a hard thing to do. Still yearning to be part of the music scene I decided to book and promote bands, joining a friends company and then going on to start my own. Just like blogging, booking and promotions went out the door when I got to college.

After graduation I still wanted to be a musician more than anything so I took my old job at a restaurant and began working on writing music. I have slowly begun to play live, but I have spent a lot of my time trying once again to start a band. The music I have played live has been very well received but it is hard to tell if someone is being nice or honest. I hope to start making money through freelance methods, such as blogging and writing (one other reason to start a new blog), so I can easily work on my music and make money at the same time.

Luckily for me I enjoy writing and have a ton to write about. Besides music I spend a lot of time doing genealogy, cooking, making art and writing (entertainment stuff like jokes and scripts). I am very into self-expressive activities, although genealogy isn't exactly self-expressive but more self-explaining as in 'where you come from'. As you follow this blog I will go into more detail, but for now lets just keep it simple.
