Strange as it is to admit, I've been spending the bulk of my leisure time hanging out at Karaoke gigs & paying close attention to the age groups, social class, racial diversity, and level of enthusiasm of the participants. And I'm pleased to report that music isn't dead post Corona Virus. It's definitely having a hard time because of the "Industry" as we know it, but this will pass. There are a few stand-out artists I'm quite fond of, even if they aren't in the same genre as mine. Wolf Alice (the Blue Monday release), and Aurora to name a couple. It's given me a renewed hope that my show has the potential to draw a regular fan base.
I'll be spending this year visiting clubs like Hi-Fi, Radio-radio, Mouse Trap, Melody Inn, Healer, and any other intimate setting that's bustling with music enthusiasts. The folks I expect to round out my crew with won't be Phd degreed Julliards or Berkley grads because we're just staring out again. We're ordinary Janes & Joes. I want people with an unfaltering passion for music, a love of the drama in storytelling, an otherwise "ordinary" disposition (well, ordinary'ish... I'm not normal either), and the determination to increase your aptitude with your instruments over time. And to add to the fun, we'll be doing Shakespearean skits before every set once we start playing out.
But for right now, I've been spending my Friday nights at "The Music Box" in Ingalls, IN. It's Karaoke night & I'm keeping my eyes peeled for new potential band mates. https://www.facebook.com/TheMusicBoxBarAndGrill
