FINALLY! I get to make a living again.
Well that's not quite true. If I ever make a living in this business it would be a welcomed change!
However, this January has been among the S-L-O-W-E-S-T I have had in years. Ridiculously slow. Like three damned bookings all month slow.
Thankfully I've had some money from 2006 gigs coming in, so I haven't starved. It HAS put a huge delay on the marketing push and some other things I'd intended to do.
Well, today I get to start really working again. Two shows in Oak Lawn today, four hours of strolling at the university of Illinois at Chicago tomorrow, gigs the 7th, 8th, & 9th as well as the 11th...It gets much better this month. Not GREAT, but certainly better.
Here's hoping I can really make some headway and get on a roll here. LOTS of things I need to buy for the business, money for a vacation, and cash for an apartment move are all on the agenda.

Wishing only good things for ya, Andy!
I try, honest I do. Why, just the other day I had a friend telling me about her dad's funeral plans. I immediately thought of you! Hey! I've got an idea! I know this great guy in Chicago who would come out and do a comedy/juggling act that your dad woulda loved! It would make for the most memorable memorial service EVER! Sadly, she didn't bite...

I'm glad the drought seems to be over.

January is either insanely busy for me or equally insanely slow. Never a happy medium.
Here's wishing for a busy February!
