it all depends, it seems that the love of your girl, your turbo hondas and a solid education with a nice side job is a far greater asset then maybe gettin a record deal. just think which one of the two youd be able to live without, and theres your answer

The best advice i can give you is: Do whatever you think is the right thing to do. <-- you'll never go wrong with doing that.

That's kinda where I'm at. It's not that I don't like music, it's just that actually leaving stuff is hard, and I know that if it happened and I could just let everyhing go, I'd totally have blast and be along for the ride. But I see no point in giving up my life unless a real offer comes up. We're playing in Mid-March in Austin, TX for some music convention @ SSW- which is like a chance for companies to scope us out, that's assuming we don't have a deal by then. It happens to be over spring break, so I'll be cool to go and try, and then I'll see.

As for the girl, she'll be done with school next spring, and I told her if I don't have enough money to make it worthwhile I wouldn't do it, but if there's enough money, then I'd want her along with me. She's pretty skeptical of the whole thing and it just stresses her out, so I'm gonna leave the topic alone until I know something. She'd be alright, but I think we'd get trashed if I left without her, which after 5 years is rough.

bigwig- I'm not saying I'm elvis or ---- here, but I haven't been actively looking to go big either. I've been playing the scene for 5 years, and that makes me 20. The band doesn't suck, and neither do I. For reference, when I played more, I was often playing with cats from the new power generation, yeah Prince's musicians. Not every average joe can say that. We're talking Michael Bland, Tommy B, Sonny T, those guys, we're all buds, and they won't deal with shitter musicians, it's demoting for them.

Travis don't worry, if I go big my first purchase will be a load of stuff for the civic. and HMT will be with me all the way. I hop on here every chance I get, and that won't change unless all you guys leave...

wow that got really long, ED - you know what's up, but I've just gotta make sure what I do is right, and not have any regrets...

I know its probably been said before but youre 20 years old dude. You are so young you can go back to school in a couple years no problem, and no offence but you probably wont be with your girlfriend forever anyways, A good girlfriend would support you no matter what you decide to do and if she doesnt youre better off with out her. you know if you dont do this you will regret it probably the rest of your life. you have the chance to expierience something most can only dream of doing and it could make you a better person because of what you will expierience. as for your friends, if theyre true friends they will be there when you get back plus youll probably meet other cool people anywayz. if it were me there would be no hesitation. good luck man

there are always gonna be risks when wanting to succeed. you can't take a step forward with out paying your dues. so don't expect something to come to you that easy. work your way up the ladder and put your full potential. choose from either or. because from what i see, what you have going now is really nothing much it's something but now much. until later.. your only making 17k a year and half you school paid. then you could possibly have a record deal, which i can guarrantee it will pay more than where your working. RISKS BABY!! that something you have to think about and take a gamble on.
