Rocking the 'View

This morning I got an unexpected call from the sales manager at Second Stage asking if I could come in for a quick interview at noon. I had already had it in my schedule to be at ETV rehearsal from 12 to 3, but a prospective job takes precedence, so I said "Sure! I can do that!"

I sent a quick text to notify the band that I wouldn't be about an hour late, and off I went. It seemed that my fate had already been sealed, because the interview wasn't really an interview - it was more of a tutorial/crash course of what doing the job entailed.
It seemed that all of my last-minute job interview preparation had been all for naught! But se la vie!

I should be getting a call about the job & when to start next Sunday. This may not be the most glamorous job in the world - but desperate times call for desperate measures! This job is my lifeboat that's gonna keep me from going down with the ship- the emergency parachute to keep me from colliding with the earth - the... well you get the idea.

After my impromptu training session was over - I hopped a train to the music studio for ETV rehearsals. It turned out that my absence from the first hour had not been a problem at all. I was glad that I had made the executive decision to go to the interview. I was finally off book for my song "Magic Man" and I'm feeling good & ready for the show on Thursday. I also got to sing the Kate --- song "I Kissed A Girl" to help the band do a run-through. I just like singing with a band backing me and I have often fantasized about being the lead singer of a wedding band or something. That would be fun. Something like that would also be a good stepping stone for my biggest dream of all - making it to Broadway by 30!
