Being a musician is so easy, being in the industry can literally drive you insane! I am my own agent and everything so, aside from giving you the freedom to decide your career, it also traps you into a spiral of "industry-ness" where in you have to conform and compromise certain aspects in order to remain afloat. I cannot just be an "artist" and just "express myself", Aaaah! I wish that, that day will come. I (with the help of my partner Bolichie) have to make contracts, hire out sound system equipment, fix our schedules and talk with venues and producers, plan out me and my band's career, stuff like that. And sometimes we get lost in all of it. In the end, you get one hell of a tired performer. Gone were the days where an artist is just an artist. Now you have to do everything, if you want to really be in this. Dedication is an understatement. I just wish that things will work out in the end.... *sigh* i really really wish it soooo bad....
