jello to a fence, joel? you're a fikkin' RIOT...never heard that one...that's hilarious.
back OT:
the chances of ANYONE getting ANYWHERE in this "business" are so slim,
that it doesn't REALLY matter WHAT you do, or don't do.
you MIGHT ask yourself, though, "am i having FUN, yet?"
then carve out your plans based on your response to this.
because, in my experience, it only gets WORSE...more flaky, lazy, entitled people,
and more missed opportunities because of this, year after year, etc.
and MEANWHILE, you're working your ASS off (well, you MIGHT be - i don't really know).
so, in the end, you GOTTA ask yourself why you're doing this, REALLY - WHY?
just my $.02 (TOTALLY devalued, of course).
good luck. and don't let this shit get you crazy, even though you probably will...
we all do - it's the CURSE of attempting both artist and entrepreneur.
