The Life of Syren Franco

Excuse me for not wanting to compete.  No battle of the bands for me, thank you; no American Idol, or The Voice, or America's got talent.  While they can make great variety shows I actually hate those shows. You didn't give two shits about the contestants until they were on TV.  Were they any less talented before being on TV?  No... they were just as talented, but you know why they didn't pursue their gifts?  Because they lacked support on a day to day basis.  They could have been famous if their families and communities supported and encouraged them.  Granted perhaps not all, but not all contestants who achieved success deserved that success either. I actually find it offensive when told I should audition, as though my talents and skills are not good enough, I have to play the lottery to get rich and have no chance of earning it otherwise.  You belittle me and my band mates by suggesting such nonsense.

I have this little ebay business and it causes stress, but it pays so whatever... still, I cannot sleep all over a disgruntled customer who honestly just didn't read the description.  I offered a refund, cause I am nice like that but haven't heard back.  They threatened, and even though they don't have a case it is still damaging when negative feedback is left...Though not the end of the world and sales will keep happening. The really bad thing is, tomorrow I will be in OC ALL DAY!  It is bad cause it is not for pleasure really, I got shit to do.  So no hanging out really.  I got practice in the morning, and practice in the evening with both bands. Stress with the bands.  One is at least already in the studio, but we are moving slow.  Playing one show a month.  The other band is cursed or something and we should just be a 4 piece and roll with it. =(  But also, all the speed bumps discourage my band mates and each time I hear about it...
