Hi All!
I've decided to start out again.
Just a brief history -
I quit my band (singer) in the 90's and moved from NY to FL. I was hoping that there'd be a great band scene in West Palm but there was nothing... I figured a town that popular must have a band scene, right? Wrong!
I began waiting tables and did that for a few years and was pretty miserable, until it dawned on me that getting into karaoke would be a great idea. I loved to sing, and it would eventually deliver me from life in a restaurant.
So that's what I did - I saved every dime, and got an advance on my credit card. I bought a pretty nice PA system and started with around 1500 songs. By this time I got my first show. It was a St. Patty's day show in Palm Beach Gardens, and it was great.
Within a month it was gone... One night I was the victim of a home invasion and they took everything right down to the cable modem for my computer. I was broken.
I had no renter's insurance and I had bought most everything with a credit card in hopes of slowly paying it back doing something I enjoyed.
It's been 5 years, but I have a system again, am singing back in the old band in NY, and do graphic design from home. I can't wait to start again!
You all seem like very nice people, sorry for the long introduction!
I only did a couple of shows before, so I am still very much of a newbie. I'm building a new song book now and I can't remember if I list solo artists by first name or last
!
). Lot's of good info here just take it with a grain of salt; especially from the furry ones.
