NO, not an onstage mid-life crisis. I know some people feel I dont give enough notice for the gigs I do. Honestly, half the time I wont know FOR SURE about a gig until 2-3 days before it happens. Now, I DONT like working that way, but I'm not the one running the shows I'm a part of. When I can, I update, but you have to understand...this is MY LIFE: not the describing what I do...the DOING: I play multiple instruments, multiple genres, and mulitple styles - RIGHT NOW,
Im in production for two live musicals ("Brain That Wouldnt Die" and "Legends of the Field"), doing guitar shows around SA ("Lion & Rose" on Sundays, "Trey's House " onTues, "G.I.G" and/or "Faulkers" on Thursdays, and others when I can post them) and hiphop shows ("The Venue", "Last Chance Saloon", "The Rooftop" in SA; "Club Mix" in Austin, and others when I can post), and still managing the various business projects I'm working on. Im eternally grateful ANYTIME I get REAL support in life - most people just "show up" to tell you they cant "show up" and actually help. I'm always open to talk about whatever, answer questions, do special projects, etc. But I cant be the one talkin' most of the time...I'm ALREADY that guy. Please, check out some of the websites I got (list under CONTACT INFO) and read up on my works. And then join in, or talk to me about YOUR PLANS and let's move foward together. THEN TELL YOUR FRIENDS, ENEMIES, NEIGHBORS, KIDS IN CLASS, ETC....and I will work to earn that love and support. Bless you.
Life changed again. Everything's been going pretty well: MUSIC - had another hiphop show with Cali. Went pretty well (though not enough people came out for us to win) and we were asked back by the joint (Jack's Bar & Grill). I've put out 8 mixtapes so far and gotten on two others (listed below). I also recently was talked about in a Salt Lake City paper (in a good way). Im hopeful and working like there's no hope.
While I still love hiphop, due to managing concerns and financial obligations, after AUGUST, Ill HAVE TO START CHARGING FOR ALL MUSIC WORK. If you want somethin' free - holla at me...NOW. Each project will be handled independently, so NO, Im NOT giving out a price list, but I WILL be open to negotiations. I've only put out one sampler of my guitar/acoustic stuff--
I'm starting a non-official local tour (Austin/SA area) for my guitar stuff and be on the look out for me in your pub/club/bar/etc.
Im working on getting all my business stuff finalized and official, so I can start hiring people and working on major projects. Ask if you wanna know.
THEATRE - I currently cast in the "Brain That Wouldnt Die" which goes up in October at the Overtime Theater. Should be fun, crazy, and a good time. I've also been working with a new musical called "Legends of the Field". We've had a few shows in town, but plan a REAL Local Tour (SA, Austin, CC, etc) and a Texas one (El Paso, Dallas, Houston, etc) as we improve and prepare for Off-Broadway. It's also helping me prepare for my company, DEUCE DIME DEFINED ENTERTAINMENT "THE Standard in Genuine Quality Performance in San Antonio.". It's small right now, but has room for...everything (at least, that's the goal). Been talking to some others about their companies/projects and we'll see how it breaks down.
LIFE - Still "JOB-LESS" though I work everyday on my entertainment ventures. Still trying to get in better shape (physically, emotionally, spiritually). Still single, though females are always...enjoyable? tempting? distracting? Something... I'm having a "life-changing" event sometime this winter (Decemer probably) and am thankful for any/all prayers. All of this...since I started truly caring about what I leave behind, as been for the improvement of what's around me and the encouragement of those near me. May my work, always be unto my Father. Bless you all. Thanks
