Hey there, folks! It's me, catching up on this thing that I'm really bad at sticking to. I don't know--most of the time, I don't have the time to sit down and write about myself...and when I -do- have the time, I don't really have the inclination. I mean, I've got friends that I want to try and see, a loving girlfriend I try to pay oodles of attention to, and an apartment to maintain...plus there are a few shows I love to watch. You know, plus the fact that I highly doubt that my life is such an interesting thing to read about anyway! But I should really keep up on this anyway--it's a good idea to be regularly updating my site for work purposes, and who knows? This might actually be useful somehow. So, here's my overdue update. First, I've been approached to perform in a new band called Heartless, which is a Heart cover band based here in St. John's. We haven't jammed yet but we've met and I've got a good feeling about group, and we're going to start learning songs soon. I'm super pumped about this, because it's been too long since I've been in a band...I miss jamming with The Dukes of Doyle and Hammingwell, so this is going to fill a void, I think. Furthermore, it's going to be amazing getting to finally be in a band with my good friend Amanda, who is the lead vocalist for St. John's-based metal band Category VI...which is one of my favourite local (and metal in general) bands. I'll (try to) keep you posted on what comes up. We're shooting for a gig in February 2017 though--more on that as it comes!! Secondly, I have a new gig/accolade that I'm honoured by: TedXYouth St. John's, an organization that I have been involved with as a volunteer for the last few years, has asked me to come aboard as part of their Leadership Team, undertaking the role of Production Lead. This thrills me because, while I have a fair amount of experience with this sort of thing from my volunteer experience with Rogers TV (seriously...it's not much different than directing Live-To-Tape television productions), I'm very self-critical. I don't know why...self-sabotage I guess. I spend my whole life working towards and hoping to succeed in a dream job field, and when it actually starts to happen, I can't really believe it. I don't get the satisfaction of "I worked for this, I've earned this, I deserve this"...I KNOW it, I just don't FEEL it--I just feel like "What, really? You're letting me do this thing? You sure??" I'm starting to get used to it because it's happening more and more often so it's less weird...but it's still a work in progress. So, for now, Go Me! :D Thanks for reading. More updates soon, I hope.

It was a pleasure to read it. Now I know you much better. 6/22/2017 01:12:00 pm
I share the same problem as you when it comes to posting updates on my blog. I always end up saying that I will just do it by the end of the day and then I completely forget about it. I guess giving life updates is kind of hard because you never know whether people will find it interesting or not. I always wonder if people really read my blog. If they do, are they having fun? Are they learning something from it? I hope so! Anyway, good luck with your music and I hope everything turns out great for you and your girlfriend. Hey man! Thanks for updating us on your progress. It's nice to see that your career is getting better and better. Keep on writing and sharing about it in your blog, man. Blogging can really go a long way and it can really spread the message. Who knows? Maybe you'd get more gigs and referrals if you continue! 2/20/2017 04:54:19 pm

This is very useful post for me and it helps me a lot. Thank you so much for this and have a great time. Getting the opportunity to learn songs is a great thing. Participating in the music industry itself is a big thing. Musicians are always offered respect by their fans. Their fans understand the power of music. More and more people have realized the capacity of music to affect people physically and mentally. You must have noticed musicians in concerts(obviously), but these days you have musicians like DJs at parties too. They are indispensable, as people love musicians, especially a DJ. DJs can change the atmosphere within a few moments and everybody would be ready to rock and roll. These days hiring DJs has become even more easier as you get them online on sites like www.ambitious.nl and others. 4/8/2017 12:05:24 am

Despite this post being so old that dust has gathered I found it endearing and honest. Don't worry about the insecurity you feel about your success, it is the hallmark of an artist, sort of an ego leveler designed to ensure growth and achievement. 7/7/2017 01:07:33 pm
