Title: Back in it...
Post by: Evo on February 07, 2013, 05:32:45 PM
Shut down my shop a year ago. Went on the road a bunch in 2012, toured about two months total.

Just saw a position come up at a local shop, press op. Great shop, probably the best in the area. One quick interview and was in there. Start next Monday.

I'll be running one of two Sportsmans, some manual printing, and doing general shop work. They are being cool about upcoming touring schedules too, so I'll still make money with the band. (bands actually, I'm in two)



So... how is everyone?

Welcome back. Technically you never left if you still have that nice one color M&R beauty. It does get in your blood.

Welcome back man.

So when are you going to bring Sleep to Missoula?  How about you submit to play Total Fest this year, eh?

To be honest I'm surprised the planets ever align to allow us to play gigs at all.

Welcome back Sir! You might notice there is a new Green color on the playing field of North America now. They had a really big balloon at the show in Long Beach. I believe that might be the only thing you missed last year!  ;)

So 2 weeks in working in someone else's shop:

I miss:
Roller frames (all statics now...sigh)
My obsessively clean equipment ans shop floor
My ridiculously loud shop stereo


I don't miss:
Manually printing
Sales
Shipping
Accounting
Bands that ask to pay for shirts after the tour
