Hi Bloggy friends
I'm sorry for not writing for something like 6 months, I didn't have anything exciting to say that I thought was appropriate for the internet hahaha! Being a musician is really stressful, that's the actual truth. It's unfortunetly not about making the music at all, not in my experience anyway....
It's all about the drama of who is trying to screw you over the least, go play there, and continue paying your rent. I do (fortunetly) get to make my own music somewhere in between, and perform that to people and they tend to enjoy it, but it doesn't really take care of any of the bigger bills I have to pay. I don't understand how other musicians play music and don't have that little bit of heavenly sanity squeezed in between there somewhere... the originals are always what reminds me that I actually do love this.
Well being on stage usually is enough to remind me why I'm doing it, but not all the time. There really is alot of not-on-stage-crap that I have to try and forget hahaha!
But I'm excited about the next little adventure so that inspired me to blog about it. Having some kind of show that I'm super excited about helps with the pulling-out-your-hair drama off stage as well ; )
We take off tomorrow for Banff to play a valentines day show (as well as a random wednesday night show!) at The Rose and Crown in Banff. We've never played in Banff so it's exciting, we don't know what to expect, we prepared so many new songs to impress our new Banff friends! The next night (thursday feb 16) we're still out and about, we play the Canmore Hotel (obviously in Canmore) and we've also never played there!!!! Then the next night we're in Red Deer at Local's pub, which has been good to the Tiff Hall band for alittle while now, but still exciting, we love being in red deer, it's always been fun. So I borrowed my mom's camera so I can take pics and videos of us doing stupid band things and I plan on sharing it with all my inter-web friends! If you're in the area come out, cause these are the shows that make me forget about why it sucks to be a musician and reminds me why it fucking rocks to be a musician!
