Enough of a developement has happened that I can post an update to the world of followers I have so they can see where my adventure are headed. Or in other words; some shit went down and I can tell you all about it. Take which-ever one you like.
So when I last wrote I was still in the process of finding a new residency; I may have found something. A gentleman who owns a condo has a room open for $500/month, all bills payed. We've talked and he sounds cool, when I head down to Austin this week I'm going to meet up with him and hopefully everything works out and I'll have a roof over my head. It's the condo owner and another roommate, which is good in that it'll force me to be social and get to know where I'm living.
In bigger and (fingers crossed) better news: I may have found a new group to perform with. They are called Aqua Jones (http://facebook.com/aquajonesmusic and http://www.reverbnation.com/aquajones). They did a craigslist ad, not too long after contacting I recieved a call from their guitarist, Brent Merchant, and had a nice conversation about what they're aiming for as total sound and what they're looking for as a potential band mate. This is where it gets good: They own bass equipment from their former bassist, so all I have to do is get down there and audition while I'm down in Austin figuring out living situations (which should be done quickly), and not have to worry about bringing down my own equipment until the actual move around labor day weekend.
I'm scared, excited, anxious and ready all at once. This is a good sounding group and I hope I'm able to bring it full on. They've already have an nicely sized based audience and have toured to some big name gigs, they have a lot of potential ahead of them but are just needing a body to help them move forward. I'm not even kidding myself, this is something I've been looking forward to for a while; a talented group where I can't get away with bringing a half-assed game to. Where I have to keep on my toes and stay fresh to not only fill in, but also bring a presence to an already functioning unit.
I'm learning how to keep an open mind and be every mindful of the events that happen to and around me so that I never miss an opportunity to expand, learn and grow. I'm always thankful of what opportunities I have had, and ones that I will learn in the near future. Never shut yourself off to a new way of thinking, and never limit yourself. In the words of Shannon Hoon: "When your deepest thoughts are broken keep on dreaming, 'cause when you stop dreaming it's time to die (and right now I don't want to die)."

The first entry... revisited... over and over.
I have O.C.D.. I don't think it's in the extreme stage of it, but I do tend to act a bit obsessive when it comes to making up a name for my blog. It was titled "It's all true" based on a quote from an author I like; but after titling that and sitting on it for 24 hours I came to the realization just how horrible it sounded. It wasn't me, its something that I think I literally never say, it was fake, it wasn't from the heart. It was something I searched for and just said "Oh! that's something," and just went with it. Then I wrote this long piece that made absolutely no since about how I wanted the phrase "it's all true" to remind you of my blog and make you come back to it over and over like a decent meme like McDonald's or something has.
For some reason, where it took me forever to come up with the title of the blog, it took me less than a quarter of the time to come up with the URL. It was just something ridiculous that worked. BlogBizzle (Bizzle being one of my many nickname's I've picked up throughout the years). So when thinking back to the title of my blog, just how important it was to me like titling a book or something, I realized the answer was right under my nose: BlogBizzle. Keep it simple, stupid.
So there it is.
Expect future posts of my daily life especially when I move to Austin around September of this year, plenty of pictures, and just random thoughts and projects I find myself in. I promise I'll do my best to make it interesting for you.
Thank you for reading.
