I've been putting every single ounce of energy I have into organizing my musical travels. I've sent out so many emails to music venues I can no longer keep count. I must average 30-40 a day, and that's just venues. I'm organizing an event, I'm working out travel plans, I'm figuring out with my friends and fellow musicians the best way to coincide our schedules and gig together. I'm updating my website, Reverbnation, Facebook (still need to work on myspace) regularly. I am following up with people, emailing new people, networking, making the necessary phonecalls. I am the epitome of "on," the epitome of living in the present. *This* is the present. I am so fully in it and so fully alive.
I am focused on the short-term goals and the long-term goals - the *big* goals - simultaneously. I see very clearly.
I am, in a sense, living my dream. Its a process, and I am on the ride. |

| Pick a day |

i just looked at my mailing list email history and realized i send out too many emails. i have to be more organized. from now on i will send out an email once a week, outlining upcoming events and acknowledging the previous week's events. I will make a day for this.
So, a general question for everyone, not just those who are on the mailing list:
What day of the week would you want to get an update email from a musician?
Your input would be huuugely appreciated. |

| Sitting Pretty for Teenage Passersby |
[Apr. 5th, 2009|07:25 pm] |
from my blog: http://jennfriedman.blogspot.com/
Its easy to know the kind of town that surrounds you by the population at your local Starbucks, or perhaps more accurately the characters on the other side of the window. On this particular Sunday in Westwood, New Jersey, I entertain skateboarding fellas left to their own devices, giggly teenage girls, ladies doting sweatpants and strollers, and an array of baseball caps and cell phones parading the sidestreets on borrowed time.
It is a seemingly effortless lifestyle of a transient community perusing Parian Jewelers, making CVS runs and picking up a cut of prime beef at the Gourmet Italian Eatery, whereupon the teenagers return to their respective hides for turkey sausage or chicken pot pie.
The cops and the boys cross paths in the parking lot of CVS. There is a scolding of some sort, an attempt to run for cover, a body search, a gentle probing into a back seat, and a sitting pretty for authority that these boys had not yet known. What was parallel is now linear, and there is nothing either of them could do.
Drop a Starbucks into any given neighborhood and watch from the door frame a local transformation. I am sitting pretty inside the conscience of Westwood, waiting for my kingdom come. |
