what is going on in your musical life

I'm playing my first music show since moving to Portland, put together three other acts to play short sets, but am still fearing that only 10 people will show up at a venue that holds 80. It's that math of knowing 50 people total who might come, then figure 25 might think about going, and 10 ultimately end up doing so.

we just played our record release show, the bands we booked to play with us were so fucking good and so stoked to be there even though we were playing in a hot pit/back room of a bar on a muggy 90 degree day in new york, and we played SO WELL i mean we rehearsed a lot but it was really amazing to notice how much we were clicking, and also someone ive had a crush on for forever was there and we made out after the set :) best night of my life, play music with your friends

hell yeah

xpost thank you so much djp, love facs

that's awesome ivy!!!

I'm collaborating with a vocalist that I have massive respect for and it's going well I think, just trying to generate lots of material and then pan for gold. Definitely have to quiet a little bit of imposter syndrome but all I can do is keep making things. Thinking about how I wouldn't have been ready for this until now, I learned my lesson years ago when I felt too precious about 'wasting' 'good' ideas/time and was super stressed about the end result. Now I feel much better about throwing as much at the wall as possible, and if *any* of it ends up coming out as a record I will be stoked.
