The future freaks me out...
Lately I've been thinking about my future. More specifically, what I want to do when I finally graduate. I graduate from JSCC in May and then plan on transferring to Union. I'm not entirely sure how long I'll be at Union, but while I'm there, I plan on continuing to major in Business Administration but also minor in Music. Part of me also wants to somehow get involved with Marketing, but we'll see how that goes. I know without a doubt that I want to do something in the Music Business. I realize it is a hard industry to get into and work for, but I am pretty determined to get into it. In the beginning, I wanted to be a musician. I will always be a musician, that will never change, but it is a lot harder to get into the business as a musician. This is where the "thinking about my future" comes into play. There are a few things I've been thinking about (some that may seem outside my capacity of actually doing...but I still think about it nonetheless). The possibilities include: getting a job at an existing label, starting a venue, or even starting my own label. I think it would both be fun and challenging to start my own label. I don't know, I've actually been giving that one a lot of thought. I realize there is a lot of work that goes into making a label, but it is something I kind of actually want to do. I need to network. I need to find people that would want to do this with me. People that are good with marketing, accounting, recording, and...of course...musicians/bands. Jackson doesn't seem like the type of town that could give me all that I need (as in musicians...I mean...I'm sure there are good bands around here...just not the types that would fit the label I have in mind). So I would obviously have to go out and find musicians and maybe even (most likely) relocate (move) again. BUT this wouldn't happen for a while now. I may even want to try to work for a label first, learn exactly how everything works, and then start my own. I don't know, all I DO know is that I want to work in the Music Business, and just the thought of starting a label excites and scares me. So yeah, just something I've been thinking about for...er...a few months now?
