When am I gonna get a job?
I told my wife good news and bad news tonight. The bad news is I am no where near ready to work. The good news is I did actually start on my demo tape. That's right. I have been using a half ass demo tape that took only a couple of hours to put together. It was the tape that I used to get the Miami interview on the job I was eventually fucked out of.
This current demo I am working on is actually more of what I am about. I am not going to get into the demo and the process or even what it features that's not the point. The point is that I am actually ready to start putting it together. That means I am getting closer to doing a show again.. as least I think thats what it means.
I havent even made it over to the unemployment office yet. I would really like to get some unemployment. I have never gotten it before. It seems like something that is so "only American" that we should all experience it. It is funny though that I have been too lazy to actually apply for the free money that is unemployment. I understand in order to get unemployment you have to actually be looking for a job so I figure I should probably wait until I am actually looking before I apply.

what type of stations are you applying to are they even field with QLZ, bigger
How far will you or would you go for a good job, where would you like to go
are you trying to make it big or just trying trying to get a job
im sure were all interested in your plans you dont have to go into detail if you dont want to but just the jist of it
I have been contacted by certain people and have sent some demos to some places that seem like it would be a cool place to live.
I am to be honest not sure where we want to live. We will go anywhere and were not set on leaving Illinois. If the right opportunity arises we will stay in this state. Just to spite blago.
I am also not sure on the type of station. Whether it be rock or another type of music or talk really doesnt matter as much as how cool the people in charge are and what type of creative control I am gonna get and can the focus of the show be something I am good at talking about. In other words, how comfortable am I going to be. Can I keep my band? Will I be promoted properly? Things like that are really important to me.
Making it big is always the goal. In my opinion I made it big here. I made it big when I was in Peoria. All that matters in being a star is how you are viewed in the eyes of your listeners. While I was on the air in Springfield, Illinois I could care less what anyone thought about me in St Louis. If I were on in St Louis I would care about the people who could hear my show.
If I were syndicated all over then I would care about being known all over.
Making it big is relative to how big your listening audience is.
I would like a bigger listening audience though, yes.
I hope that answers your questions.
You ever thought about trying to go big time with your band? Start off playing in chicago and st louis and other areas?
