The last 24 hours have been quite the changing type. You find yourself sitting and wondering what the fuck you are doing one week, and then suddenly on the blink of an eye, you have clarity. It's clarity, and a destination I've always wanted to strive for, but I always felt like people were in my way. Some wanted me to be what they expected me to be, meanwhile, it never made me happy in life.
Flash back to 2011 for this story. I am a college student at NAU, I pick some electives that strike my eye. One of those that catch my attention is the radio station KJACK. This point in time I had no idea what I was doing. I picked up the class, and suggested my own variety show. I chose to focus on punk music at the time. I called the show "That Damn Punk Show." Which was a play on a former concert festival in Phoenix. I had a blast doing it both semesters. I came home the summer of 2012 anticipating to see about an internship at X1039, but right as the spring semester was ending, they folded the station. I was shit out of luck.
Moving forward to 2014 I got involved with KUKQ, which was the alt rock station in Phoenix. There was a catch. It was online only. However, it functioned almost just like a normal station. I got involved, and I started doing promo with the Q. This ceased near the end of the year as 93.3 KDKB was shifting formats from a contemporary rock format to a alternative rock format. I didn't know exactly what to do, or if people would be kept on. So, I got left in the cold. I did start a job that summer which did limit my availability, so that probably didn't help.
The last 24 hours, if they make a movie about my life, this may be a key part. Perfect Sense started recording a single, the first time since 2017 we are in the studio. Thank fucking god. Meanwhile, I had been in contact with Mo at AltAZ over twitter the last three months or so. I made a stupid video for the Ugly Sweater show and, boom... Suddenly things are back in my court.
I feel like I have a chance to do things I want to do for once. Not what others want me to do.
Watch this space.... Wish me luck...
