Coming to town COLD!!!!

[taysdad]

I'm moving to your City after 8 years of my family telling me that I should. I am a little more informed about the music scene than they are, and have been for years. hence my apprehension.(i.e. how many aspiring singers-songwriters don't make it, & the ??? many more coming every month) But recent events in my life have required I change my ways. So....without much up-front planning, and knowing nothing about the place & nobody I know living anywhere close to it, I bought a 1-way plane ticket and will be landing @ the airport in about 3 weeks w/ a couple of suitcases and my guitar. And aside from the transitional funds in my boot, I have no clue where to stay ( weekly motel at first), where to look for work in my profession (Cook / sous Chef; steakhouse or fine dining preferably). and since I'll have no transportation where I can find this close together and near the clubs and other hang-outs of writers/musicians. Can Anyone give me a point in the right direction?? Man I'd appreciate it, as well as any correspondence about Music City life. Well, Thanks and I can't wait to get there & hopefully meet some of you.


Till then,

It's a good move Keith. If you want to surround your self with creative people and an awesome music scene (not just country), then you're coming to the right place.
Good Luck,
