Second Life as a Musician vs. The Real World

In all my years as a Musician, from pulling in a great income, to falling apart at the seams of my guitar strings…I’m beginning to see, at the point I am in my life…that the Virtual Gigs are a BONUS as far as earning at least half of what you’re worth, if that. However, at the point I’m at in my physical world, the one that surrounds my back yard, alleys and local flavors, I am again…..working on my new Emerging from the ashes of taking over a decade off…..to raise a family…so to say.

So in the past few weeks, I’ve done several local, live shows…in St. Paul and Minneapolis, for virtually nothing.  I’ve cancelled Virtual Online shows, in order to take the exposure to the local scene. I’ve been paid a total of $17.00. Yeah…for over 3 hours of performing!!! Maybe because I’m ‘again…new’….perhaps because I am solo, and no longer use a band (too much of a pain in the ass, to worry about anyone, other than myself)….So in my Studio, I sit in my Pajamas, guitar in hand, a cold drink on my desk…perhaps a burning cigarette (if it’s autumn)…and a Muse that tends to never sleep for days, or sleep for too many days, leaving me feeling useless, when I can’t produce new images, be it Paint or Lyrical Grooves…… Read more

Music. Grandaughters. Life. Music and More Music!

WOW a lot is happening! I haven’t updated in a bit, in between 3 mice who passed on (2 because of JuJu my lovely murderer ferret) lol!!! And another just passed on his own…..THEN I celebrated an amazing 12 years of marriage with the Love of my Life. My grandaughter Alexis was born….on our 12 year anniversary…how COOL IS THAT!

There she is…..I keep hearing that Stevie Wonder song in my head EVERY TIME I see this little amazing bundle of love…’ Isn’t she lovely….’ that song has been stuck in my head since she was born. JUNE 6…4.pm…same time my husband and I celebrated the RECEPTION when we got married.  Pretty amazing eh?

ON the other hand….

HOUSE PARTIES!!!!

I do them! Want to have me at your place? Send the invites and get a group of people who Love live music….and I’ll be there. You can email me direct at suzenjuel@gmail.com      In the VIRTUAL world, I have not been performing nearly as much as I once did, and for obvious reasons…Summer is here, life is CRAZY!!!!  But I don’t forget my friends, my family, my fans…FFF! :)

I have written a few new songs in the past month or so, … It’s been a LONG TIME since I’ve written THREE in a month…so I feel great about that. They will be available on the new cd…..(not date set yet, but absolutely this year)  As far as my last CD “Untitled #13″ you all rock, that bought it!!! And if you didn’t…well just go to the Tab at the top of the page #13…and get it FOR GODS SAKE!!!!! LOL

I will update in a Proper way, soon, right now life has me by the hair and as long as it doesn’t YANK it out, I’m cool! I’m looking forward to a summer filled with Music, Jams, Friends and love!
