New Life, New Job

Hey guys,

For those of you who care, I've decided to post an update about whats been going on. I've currently under gone a new look and a new out look on life. I've been giving the opportuinity to become a booker for a Venue thats close to my heart, local around where I live. Its called The Soundvent, and I'm absolutely thrilled to be given this opportunity to change the music scene around here. I love all types of rock music, but sometimes when you cater to one type of music long enough, it starts to drive you insane and begins to shun the other bands.

And while I'm booking, I want diversity. I want all bands, whether they are Hardcore, Death Metal, Pop Punk, or even Punk or Indie to have a chance to play and have a chance to grow a fan base, to reach out to a different type crowd. I love meeting the people as well, speaking with bands, meeting them and working on booking and setting up shows. I love touring bands, it just seems they know how to treat a booker, they know we are busy and working as hard as we can to set up the show to better their night at our venue, to get the best locals to complete the bill and pull as many people in to watch them.

I dont know, its just so crazy to picture me taking on this type of responsibility when I've only dreamed about something like this. I've just been so flaberghasted about it all, completely shocked that I could be given this chance.

Anyway, thats just a small update, and one that was much needed.

Hope all of you are well and you should check out our venue's myspace.

myspace.com/thesoundvent

Add us and get people to know about us. And if you know any bands thats coming to North Carolina then send em to our myspace and our way, I'd love to work something out to help as many touring bands as I can. I know how hard it is on tour, I want to do whatever I can to help.
