Sasha Mercedes
I forgot to mention that I broke it off with Ex #4 a few days ago. I just didn’t feel like dealing with the shit from him anymore. I told him if he was serious about wanting to be with me, he’d work as hard as absolutely necessary to get me back. He’s made a half-assed effort so far, so I don’t see it going anywhere.
On another note, I went to see Sasha Mercedes tonight at the Irish Moon. She’s always a wonderful performer. I think this is my third time seeing her. But apparently she’s moving, so she won’t be performing for a long time. Her partner lives in Maryland, and he’s an excellent guitarist and singer. So their act is kinda ’split up’ for now. Sati told him today that I was looking for someone else to play with, which is true. But at the same time it’s like, I don’t think I’m good enough to play with him. At least guitar-wise.
But who knows. An employee at the coffee house said that she liked my sound better, but I have to disagree. Sasha just has that Janis sound to her that I love. But it lifted my spirits none the less. Also another guy heard an mp3 of mine that I had been working on, and said “Wow, Sasha is really good, isn’t she?” And I was like “Yeah……but that’s not Sasha, that’s me.” So I had to chuckle.
I was able to convince my Dad and my cousin Steph to go with me, so it was nice sharing that experience with them.
The owner of the coffee house offered me a VERY part-time job there, but I turned it down because it interfered with -all- of my Cedarlight things. He also wanted me to hide my pentacle, and even though I didn’t say anything about it at the time, it pissed me off. Screw that.
However, I was offered to start playing there regularly on some Fridays, but I have to come up with a 2 hour set. So I guess I’ll be working on that.
SOMEONE GIVE ME A JOB.

I’m really glad for your success. Sounds like you’re very good.
That’s not fair that they would ask you to hide your pentacle. Even if it was best intentions. I love your site by the way. Also your blogging. <3

I’m sorry to hear about the break with Jeff, but I’m glad you’re not willing to put with the negatives. You know it will work itself out (with him getting his arse in gear) if it was meant to. :o)
Hide your pentacle? That guy has some issues…seriously. I hope the Friday gig comes through though..that would be seriously awesome!

Bah.
Sasha sounds good. But IMHO you are easily as talented. And I like your voice better.
