2015 is being planned...more plays?

It may seem that most every blog post for this blog (I have 3 currently) is about gigs, but I try to use this particular space as a record of things I have done, since they do not add up to much on a resume. Would anyone care that I played Little Shop of Horrors 4 times? No, but if they read these blogs they may find out about it and see what I took from the experience. Why do people watch sports? Possibly to live vicariously through the athletes and empathize with them. The same can happen here!

I have 2 plays scheduled so far for 2015: "The Boyfriend" @ Oak Hill H.S. at the end of January, and "9 to 5" @ Community Little Theatre later in the Spring. I have a few other possibilities that I will not confirm until I have them in writing (or email). I am wondering if I can match the number of shows I played last year? I am also wondering if Maine State Music Theatre was a one-time thing or will I get an offer this year?

2015 may also be a year for more weddings! Every Other Sunday is preparing for a wedding reception promotional video taping to hopefully put our name out there. I am craving to play the lute or piano for a few engagements. I will be donating some time to a few nursing homes/hospice when my work schedule and school quiets down (most likely Summer). If I want to practice, why not have an audience that might appreciate it?

I plan on writing more blogs-- more diverse blogs-- in this coming year. I have to post an update about gear that I am using (a pedal board collection), my foray with the 7-string guitar (and how much hardware matters), and a glimpse into other blogs I write about; 1) Psychology and music, 2) science and skepticism, and 3) futurism.

We will see where this year takes me. A new job? Possibly a reunion with an old band? A great wedding gig with fabulous cake?

I welcome them all!
