Last night was awesome! It was our official band launch and it was packed! You could feel the energy from everyone in the room the second we walked in. So cool. Usually we start out with some calmer songs because no one is drunk yet and it kinda just gets people ready for the louder stuff later. But last night we started right out with the high energy dancing music and it was great. People came just to see us, so they were really into it. There were newspaper people, magazines, people with video cameras, it was crazy. After our first set we all had to go meet out in front of the club for interviews and photos, I truly felt a little famous. Everyone wanted to talk to us and ask us questions. We even signed autographs!
The whole night was great, but then of course there's always a few people that are just a little too honest, or blunt I guess. I was talkin with this man from the UK and he was saying how much he liked the show and how great it was, but then out of no where he said, "No offense but there's really no reason for there to be another singer with a black girl up there, she's the only one to watch, she's really the most talented." I was quite shocked that he would say that to my face. And that wasn't the end of it either. I then talked with a local lady and she was being so nice then came the, "No offense you're really cute, my daughter would love you, but I thought you were really boring. But now talking to you, you are so nice." I know I'm in the business where I'm being judged all the time but seriously, who just says that to someone's face? And do people really think if they start with "No offense" that it's ok to say whatever?
Anyway enough with that business. All in all the night was great, and it's getting easier and easier to hear when my songs are coming up so I'm not really nervous anymore. Tonight is ladies night so we'll see how that goes!
Sometimes I think people just say that because they have no talent and they are jealous. Whatever!
ReplyDeleteDon't know where the Aunt Net thing came from but I kinda like it so that is going to be my on-line celebrity name now.
ReplyDeleteYeah that's true. It's just annoying! Haha and I like the name Aunt Net.
ReplyDelete"No offense but I am totally going to offend you right now" That's just plain rude!
