Welcome to my Dragon Clan. I was sick and out of commission for the end of December and begining of the new year. I'm finally starting to feel like myself again and able to get out and play open mics. I'm dead set on playing some gigs this year out in bars, coffee shops, or whatever and what have you.
I have a pretty long laundry list of musical goals this year. Copyrighting my first album, building soloing skills, joining a performing rights org, signing up for SoundExchange, and writing a ton of new songs. I'm hoping to play a couple dozen gigs this year and have enough good material to start my next album. All the while trying to build my brand and define it.
Recently I watched a YouTube video on Medieval jesters. I did not realize the extent of their functions. Most of all, I didn't know they were musicians, not just comedians. They were also advisors to the nobility, often aiding decision making. They also acted as messengers, travelling throughout the lands. All that to say, I am continuing to explore a medieval aspect to adorn my brand with.
I got my content moving well last year and I plan to continue relentlessly this year. Look for an expansion to my YouTube offerings. My objective is to do more with what I have and not spend more money on gear. We'll see how long that lasts, LOL!
Love and peace
