Today I was asked if I wanted to speak on a panel at a major university about the music industry, to which I replied yes. I hope it happens, as I really want to start speaking to more than my friends about my wacky ideas about the ‘biz.
It’s insane to think that years ago I was hauling a bass amp around at firehall shows, and now I’m the editor of Noisecreep. As I write this ‘Dammit’ from Blink 182 comes on the radio, reminding me about dingy clubs, JNCO jeans, crappy equipment and distro tables. The only thing that’s changed, besides the tightness of jeans and disappearance of distro tables, is I’m 10 years older and getting paid to do all this.
