O.k., so i've been planning on moving to L.A. after this school year, so mid june of 06. I've also considered moving to Austin, TX, Nashville, and NYC. I want to make a living as a bassist supporting a touring act, as a studio musician, or both. That's why L.A. was at the top of the list. The problem is that moving to L.A. scares the shit out of me. Everytime i go there i get stressed out. I'm thinking about Austin, cause alot of players get picked up out of there for tours and shit, and mostly because it doesn't scare me one bit.
So there's this orchestra job for a middle school in Austin that opens 1/2/06... Do i apply and try and move there a half a year earlier, or do i suck it up and go to L.A. in June?
God i'm such a fucking chicken. I know the answer is go to L.A.
Phil, I have no bias toward Austin or LA. This is easy to figure out.
Take your standard U.S. quarter. Assign one city to heads and the other to tails. Flip the coin in the air. Before it lands, your brain will instinctively wish for one over the other. It just will. That's your choice. To hell with how the coin actually lands. Follow your guts.
