So its here. The moment I've been waiting for/dreading for the last year of my life. The moment that all the hard work I've put into Guitar Center finally pays off. The moment that I am finally able to start walking down that fork in the road towards a new future.
I'm off to Sioux Falls, South Dakota to be the General Manager of that location.
Its not that I have doubts about going there. Its not that I am scared of whether or not I'll succeed. Its not that I don't have confidence that its that best thing to ever happen to us...
But holy shit. I'm moving. I've lived in Minneapolis my whole life. I love this town. I love this state. I love my family (both of them!). I love my friends (that now I wish I had made a greater effort to see them more often) I love GC339 and all those bastards who work there (and even some of those jerks at 392). I love my house (dear God, please sell and fast). I love it here.
But
I'm gonna slaughter that city and make all those emo/hardcore kids that live there realize that its time to grow up and become real musicians. They won't even know what hit them.
Bebo Norman puts it best.
And maybe I am a little scared....

This is at least the second time you've used that title... Perhaps a life theme for you?
I'm somewhat saddened that I didn't find out about this over the phone, but I'm pretty stoked for you. Except now I have to go to frickin' South Dakota at some point. :)
Read the original "The Hammer Holds" post and you'll understand why I did that.
Hey marty, I'm happy for you, really. but its sad that i will probably see even less of you than i do now. well, at least when we see each other we can commiserate about how much it sucks to not live in minneapolis and not live near friends and family.
so... to tell you the truth, i was thinking of not coming home this weekend, but when corinne told me you guys were leaving, i decided to come. translation: come to my party on saturday or suffer the wrath of alison for the rest of your life.
