real artist substance
Oh God, it's such a big world right now for artists. There are as many possibilities as you can have time for, getting your music out there with the internet, and Youtube, Vimeo, Facebook, and everything that you have, there is a way to spread the word. To me, the first thing you have to have is substance and content and real depth.
couple writing years
When I'm writing, which is 8-9 months out of the year, I'm in a concerted writing pace, where I work 5 days a week for at least a few hours a day, maybe a little bit more. But I won't work for more than 2 hours at a time. I'll work for a couple hours and take a break.
gay vocabulary people
People that are much younger in areas that are much more, kind of, disenfranchised, I guess, as far as the gay movement goes, they still have a language that they've discovered around things. And they have a vocabulary to use, and they have a way to express themselves even when they're not accepted.

I mean, I really, really love playing solo. Definitely, it's like a labor of love, it's not a huge career. It's not that successful, but it's something I love so much that I'll do it regardless.

Music is such a good way to resist. It keep you strong, it has dignity.

bride fun groom met took
We met the bride and groom and the family, and took some pictures. It was a lot of fun to be a part of the celebration.
extremely operate political politics queer
I think our politics are extremely punk. The world that we operate in is still unfortunately more corporate. We can be queer and political but we're still part of the system.
guarantee tests
All the tests have come back fine, but they also said that there's no guarantee that everything is ok.
