I have joined Sesame Street Live's Elmo Makes Music tour. It has been two years since I was a "roadie."
The economy is hard for everyone. However, I have found that it is espeically hard for folks in the entertainment business. In the early 2000s when I was in college, Walt Disney World recruiters would come out and tell us about all the jobs they always had a hard time filling. . . . . Except when I got out of college, the economy had taken a turn (it was shortly after 9/11) and tourism has never bounced back since then.
I find myself once again living out of two 50 pound suitcases and in a different city every week. This time I'm strictly stateside which makes me happy. I'm not going to lie, I'm getting a little old for this kind of work, but this girl has bills to pay and a doggie at home that has medical bills. I sure do hope I've made a good decision!
