I wish I was a musician

Red Moon - The Cockatiel Cowboy

Sometimes I wish I was a musician. Or an actor, or a comedian. Sometimes I just wish I could enjoy basking in the stage energy. I saw these guys play the other night, and it felt like being injected by horse cum and winning the Kentucky Derby barefoot.

Coming up with a new character or drawing a page is a pretty boring thing to sit and watch. I guess Twitch is there, but there’s something about being at a live show that you can’t compare to. And don’t say conventions because that doesn’t count. While you do meet some awesome people, outside of that you’re either doing a q&a for a panel or you’re a corny salesman trying to sell goofball merch.

“Come buy my comic, it’s about a pig fight man that wears two strap-ons on his head but he’s celibate now!”

For now, I’ll settle for making musicians and comedians in my world, like Red Moon, Yelogo, Sad Ape, and Juke Brooma (based on my friend Luke Touma). Energy!

I guess I don’t really have a point other than I get jealous of being able to lose your shit on stage, or at least just publicly. Seems fun, maybe I’ll try it on the train to work.
