What The....

Ok, so not every NY experience is going to be a positive one. This I know....but tonight was odd.

However, above everything else, as of today I am officially a member of AEA. I have my temporary card and will get the real one in a week or so. This is definitely the start of something great and I am well aware that the hard work is just beginning for me. Now the fun begins...

I had my second audition/interview tonight with an agent. Well, actually, a manager.

The Q&A was...interesting. It is most definitley illuminating to hear how different agents, managers and CDs view the business, their place in it, and how they feel about it all.

So I go in and do my songs and what not and the reaction and feedback was...odd. And that is all I can really say without going into incriminating detail. I was left with an overwhelming feeling of: Huh?

Tonight was illustrative of the best piece of advice I ever got before I moved to New York: Bring your sense of humor!

Thanks, Gaelen.....how true those words ring.
