"I'll keep this short and to the point: The reason that club owners continue to fuck over musicians and bands with money is that there are some constituents in our business that feel that it is OK to play for nothing, or close to it, just because they don't need the money, or for exposure, or to undercut the competition, etc. What they do NOT realize is that they not only hurt their colleagues, but also themselves, in the long run. CARDINAL RULE: IF YOU ARE PROVIDING A SERVICE FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE PROFITING FROM THAT SERVICE, THEN YOU DESERVE TO BE PAID, ADEQUATELY I MIGHT ADD, FOR THAT SERVICE. AS A MUSICIAN, YOU ARE ANOTHER VENDOR FOR THAT BAR, RESTAURANT OR CLUB, AND THOSE VENDORS DO NOT WORK FOR FREE, NOR DISCOUNT THEIR PRODUCTS TO SUCH A MENIAL LEVEL FOR "EXPOSURE", AND THEY AREN'T IN THIS FOR FUN. MUSIC IS FUN FOLKS, BUT IT IS ALSO A BUSINESS, AND NEEDS TO BE TREATED AS SUCH! Let's get real: Each musician on a gig deserves at least $100 at the end of ...

Contents of a Driver's License: Name, Date of birth, address, eyeglasses required, gender, height, eye color, organ donor, what class of driver, date of issue and expiration, a photo. All of this is no one's business but your own. "I only want to buy tobacco or alcohol or see my favorite band. Sure! Here's my ID. Take your time scrutinizing it and/or scanning it " xoxo hugs and loves . Contents of a Vaccination Record Card: Name, date of birth, date of vaccination. "If you ask to see my card, I will sue you!" When I am in an establishment where people are unmasked, I want to be assured that my fellow patrons have had their vaccine. Show your card and enjoy yourself. It is as much an invasion of your privacy as showing your ID before entering a club. People don't seem to have a problem with that, so why the problem with showing your vax card? Your ID contains more personal information than your vax card does. I will proudly show mine. Showing your va...

After reading Kafka's Metamorphosis, I wasn't sure if I was a bug who wanted to be a man or a man who wanted to be a bug. So I figured that the best thing to do was to not identify as a bug or a man or to identify as all or none of the above,. The problem was, which bug would I want to be? Did I want to be one kind of bug? Two kinds of bugs? All kinds of bugs or not a bug at all. OR...did I want to be neither a bug or a man? I solved the problem by looking in the mirror. It was then that I determined that I was not a bug, nor did I want to be a bug. I happily accept that I am a man and not a bug. I hope that Congress will not waste taxpayer money debating whether or not they should pass laws to ensure me the right to try to figure this out without discrimination. They have important work to do, and they had better get to it. It is my business if I want to think of myself as a bug, as a man or none or all of the above. Until I can figure it out, maybe I'll just come out and ...

I look through time, childhood mem’ries dance before my eyes I see your face in my mind I look through time, childhood mem’ries swirling in my mind I feel out of place in this time There’s trash dumped in the alley...There’s a bug on the wall On the flight from the 5th floor where my grandma took a fall The old refrigerator...The tank above the bowl Julia the neighbor was very old My uncle came to visit he played the guitar He had half a thumb but he ...
