It's Probably Time I Posted An Introduction

[2Cents]

I'm originally from the Midwest. I've spent the last 25 years or so working professionally as an Audio Tech doing concerts and festivals with many different genres of music. I got my nickname when I first started touring because I usually have a smart remark to add to a conversation hince the 2 Cents. lol But since the world has gone stupid crazy with politics being a new religion, smart remarks has been a helpful tool to keep my sanity.

Glad to have you here! Touring audio for that long is awesome, I’m sure you’ve seen some things. Would love to hear a few stories while you’re around the site

It's a lifestyle for sure. I've seen people wash out really quickly and yes I've seen all kinds of stuff.

And despite "politics being a new religion" I would bet every dollar I own, that you are a Trump supporter to the max!

The world is getting crazier

The world is getting crazier

The world has been crazy, it's just we now have social media connected to cell phones to get the word out fast.
The only real difference I see now is the fact a lot of people don't care what public image they are projecting out in the world.

The world wasn't this crazy, at most. Since the invention of the Internet, well where you know Internet is the greatest melting pot of culture, the insanity of the world accelerated exponentially.

I think both things are true. A lot of this madness has always existed, but the internet didn’t just reveal it, it amplified it. Stuff that would’ve stayed local now goes global in 30 seconds, and people are really performative now for the views instead of living their lives quietly. It’s not just more visible, it’s incentivized.

Ya, that's what I meant, the Internet amplified it

lol, in other words thats what I was saying. I just uncluded that now a lot of people don't really care what image they project of themselves. There are days I question if we are living in a Jerry Springer episode.

Yes, it's already an understood point
