Update 03/24/10

 Well...here we are again...

DJ SIDE:
Felt kinda weird not spinning at MasQ on Saturday, though I did drop in to see how it was going. Looked like things went rather well. I unfortunately missed Rune's set...though I'm sure it was awesome...she knows what the crowd likes :)

Thus far, the demos I've sent out to folks have not garnered a response, be it good or bad. One event has already listed their lineup, and I wasn't really told one way or the other. I think that's the most frustrating thing, personally. I always like to know where I stand, good or bad...I guess they didn't feel the same way about it. Ah well...

Still putting music together for Hal-Con in the fall...really looking forward to it. Got some surprises in store for people that night...should be a fun time :)

There's also something I wanna rant about, but I'm not sure if I should. It's hard to keep myself from saying how I feel about things when it comes to my DJing. However...seeing as it doesn't really involve anyone specifically, I guess I can let loose a little bit.

I'm getting the feeling lately that I'm being "typecast," per se. People see/hear my darker music choices, and think that's all they're ever going to get if I send them a demo. In my head, I'm feeling like I'm never going to get a chance to prove I can play other kinds of music, because of being typecast. Again, the aforementioned demos sent out recently were my attempts to show that I play more than just EBM/industrial, though that's my true passion. But I do feel like I'll never get the chance to prove it to anyone, because no one's interested in giving me a chance to prove it. My demo was downloaded twice (which is good, seeing as I only sent it to two people)...so they've either heard it and didn't like it...or they downloaded it and just decided to toss it. Either way...it's become so frustrating for me that I'm coming to the conclusion that maybe I should give it up for good...

RADIO SIDE:
Not so much radio, per se...but the first official podcast is up and available for download! Yes, it's only available right now on Mediafire, but it's a free download :) Hopefully as things go, I'll have a better site to put my podcasts on, and then I can get them syndicated through iTunes...though, in the meantime, I'm looking at some kind of free option for that...only time will tell...

The radio shows, as you've prolly already guessed, have been put on indefinite hold. The internet connection is still proving to be unreliable at random intervals. Some nights it's fine, some it's horrendous. It's really frustrating, as you can imagine. 

PERSONAL SIDE:
On the personal side of things, not a lot has changed. I've had a few temp jobs here and there...got one lined up for tonight, a one-nighter thing. Better than nothing, I say. 

Things with Necrobilia are coming along swimmingly. I've seen a couple of prototypes that are still under wraps for the moment...can't wait to put them on the blog/fan page...you're gonna love 'em! Hopefully this week, I'll be working on a prototype of my own...I'll keep you updated :)

Also...I have a plan for something coming up in the near future. Can't really say what it is at the moment, as it's only a concept right now. Giving any kind of hint might jinx it...I think that's vague enough :)

Still kinda feeling out of the loop, as far as things going on with my friends...and as you can imagine, I haven't been feeling the greatest about it. As a result, I've been hiding here in the house, having private CSI: Miami marathons, and feeling very much alone lately. It's beginning to feel like I may as well stop going out into public altogether...which would co-inside with the thought of retirement from DJing.

I dunno...

Well that's it for now...off to do something while I wait to get tired enough to sleep...or something...
