Ok at the end of the day I get weirded out by people bartering with me for services.
3 coffee shops,1 bookstore, city of Calgary & libraries and YMCA & Discovery House Shelter and nobody haggles prices with me but this huge conglomerate says:
We spend $5000 on advertising so we need you to do 10 shows for free to pay for advertising your kids shows. Meanwhile everyone else is like " cool do my coffee shop lets split advertising. Bye
As well I am learning about spiritual warfare and not slandering anybody.
James 3: True wisdom
Gonna read it now.
Stay blessed!
adding some west coast flair to the bipolar scene, I endeavor to share what an authentic Canadian bipolar experience can feel like, taste like and sound like....with no artificial colours or flavours.

Stuck with no crowd...my music in a vortex
So it has been 3 years since my kids music business started.
3 years.
3 years and no big crowds.
3 years and I have lost 2 big preschool & pre-K clients
3 years and I played to 7 kids today @ my bi-weekly Friday shows.
3 years and i and my wife are still killing ourselves at an evening janitor job that we hate...5 days a week.
3 years and making $400
3 years and 2011 I make $680 less due to a bipolar rage episode I had with one big preschool ( did i mention i lost them)
3 years and I don't know if its fair to my family and myself, as it seems I cannot responsibly provide.
3 years and i HAVEN'T led any children to Christ like I felt called to do.
3 years and I am 39 years old and I wonder if I can keep this up
3 years and I am facing the reality that my fuck-head friend Eric was right. I should give the fuck up on this dream, "wake up" and get a real job to provide for my family.
3 years and I have been completely stressed out.
3 years and I am now depressed and don't think I can "will" this kids music business to work.
