That's a nice night you have planned.....too bad it's canceled.

I love the smell of failure in the morning! Smells like.....victory.

Ooops! Can I have a do-over?


Been a while, hasn't it? I've been fairly busy gigging (yay!). But, I've had a bit of a setback. I was working on getting a brand new house and breaks night set up at a nice venue. Getting the DJ's lined up. Starting the promotion. Deciding on how to grow the night over time. Yes, all that good stuff. Less than two weeks to launch, I get the IM from the promoter. "Venue changed their mind." The night isn't going to happen. Promotions taken down. DJ's apologized to.

And then what?

Anger.
Disappointment.
Frustration.

But this happens, doesn't it? No bridges were burned. No feelings were too deeply hurt. Time to step back, take a breath, re-focus, and decide what's next. That open-decks night at DC9? Maybe. More time to lock down a killer set for Ravemasters in 2 weeks? Definitely.

Lets mix.....
