We all know the economy has slowed every facet of the entertainment commuinity from film , music.To the restaurant & bar industry as well as theatres and concerts. Even recreational facilities see a drop in attendance. No work or income means no disposable income for nights out on the town for the average Calgarians who want to avail themselves of all of the above named luxuries in life. And for the creative people who are involved in all of those professions? It means hunting and finding alternative employment for a way to just pay the bills. And speaking as a musician and studio owner , coming home after a twelve hr. day of landscaping its often difficult to derive the enthusiasm to practice multiple instruments , build new beats , or write new songs when your brain and body arn't feel'n it! Well I'm here to tell ya that any creative response to stress is a positive response! Even if no one ever sees your sculpture or painting or photo you take . If no one but your soul, hears the music you create or the movie you shoot , you will be richer for taking on this challenge. Its a positive and fearless response. And if it happens that the world does get to recognize your passion for your craft and delights in its very existence we will all be richer for expeiencing it together.
