Larry's Confidence Game CD
Thursday mornings I have a few hours before I have to go in to work (yes, I have a job). I just got this WordPress up and running, so I’m trying it out.
I have a cup of coffee, a cigarette, CNN on in the background, elegantly attired in my lounging pajama’s, sitting at my desk (a piece of discarded plywood spanning two discarded filing cabinets…trash, in other words).
I am amazed, amused, and often puzzled at the assumptions folks make about me, mostly because of my background in the music business. Thirty years ago I was one of the primary singer/songwriters in the band FIREFALL.
People think I am wealthy (my net worth at this moment is approximately $500), they believe me to be wildly exciting and the life of any party (haven’t been to a party in decades…In fact, I rarely go out at all).
People seem to assume that what we do (or, in my case, what we’ve done) is who we are. In some cases, and to some extent, that may be true.
In this journal, I hope to introduce readers to the “who I am” aspect of things, while revealing some of the less public aspects of “what I did/do”…stories, in other words. Folks seem to like ‘em, and I have many. The more horrifying and shocking, the better, sometimes.
Stop in from time to time. Read and enjoy and think about things.
I gotta go to work.
