You Don’t Have to be a Whore Anymore!
Well the El Cortez project may very well die in it’s infancy. Had a meeting with the owner and he wants a mixture of soul/r&b and modern pop in order to appease the under 25 female crowd. This was of course after he stated that he didn’t want the younger crowd in the first place (2 days prior). He still wants a lack of hip-hop but who knows how long that will last? I will be seeking out other bars who perhaps have less of a need for the top 40’s shit. Don’t get me wrong I can play that kind of music but there is a principle. I have sold out much to the modern Reno beast, I have played (and perhaps even enjoyed) music that I would not even have considered 2 years ago. But even a DJ has scruples and mine is turning into the very thing that turned Downtown Reno into the hole it is today. The line has to be drawn here! This far and no further!
Begin countdown now…

My birthday is coming. Dec 22. I will be 26 years old rapidly approaching my late 20’s. I am not sure I have an issue with it per se. I do have an issue with the fact that I am not doing much more than DJing. The Grant Writing program at TMCC has been dropped down to a workshop, so therefore I have very little options left to what I actually want to do with my life. I think I need to live in a larger city, New York or SF (preferably New York) and see where I can make my fortune. I am rapidly approaching 30 and I think it’s time I left this city permanently to find my fortunes elsewhere.
The December depression has not been as bad as it has been in the past. It has not proceeded to the December death wish yet and we are getting a lot closer to the end of the month. This month has been terrible, don’t get me wrong, but I have been able to distract myself and cope better with events that have transpired. I keep feeling like I should do more with this site but so far I haven’t had much time for anything except to write in it. I might need to figure out a way to manage my time better. After December I will look into it more. For right now though things will just have to be what they are.
I am going to load up Adult Swim.com and watch the Venture Brothers from last week. I need a laugh.
The Lords are here!
