Right, so since I have basically had next to nothing to do with live events on hold, I’ve been watching a lot of Netflix.
Who am I kidding? I’ve been watching ALL of Netflix.
Now, I’m not generally one for these kinds of reality shows, but I’ll be damned if I didn’t get completely hooked on “Selling Sunset” and “Below Deck”. These are horrible shows with horrible people (although “Selling Sunset” far outranks “Below Deck” when it comes to just plain awful human specimens). And I’m not gonna lie..I love them and I hate myself a little bit for it. I even looked into how to become a real estate agent, but it got too hard and I took a nap.
I find myself literally, yelling at these drama loving bitches through the TV, like they can hear me and we’re about to go into full on slapping cat-fight mode. No one else is here. It’s just me. And I am yelling at the TV, as I open another pint of Ben & Jerry’s Netflix and Chill’d, which is a thing and my version of crack, like a lunatic.
But surely I’m not the only one? What is your crack combo these days #cuzcovid?
Hi there!
I run a band/artist/production and event management company called FlyingFox AB based out of Stockholm, Sweden where I manage some well known bands and artists. I also offer services in consultancy, tour, production and event management. I've been in the business for 23 years. During this time, I have earned vast experience in all aspects of the music business and live events. I'll not bore you will all of the details here.
Currently, with all of this Covid-19 nonsense going on, I've found myself with quite a bit of time on my hands. I still have a company to run, and artists to take care of. However, with 189 shows cancelled this year, let's just say loads of time has suddenly opened up. I've been feeling "non-essential", frustrated, angry, hopeless. This thing has knocked myself, and so many others completely off guard. Those of us who have dedicated our entire careers to the live music, art, event and entertainment sectors are in critical need of genuine support.
That's why I've recently also started a non-profit called C.R.E.W Coalition. C.R.E.W stands for Career Restricted Event Workers. Please feel free to explore what we're all about, and don't hesitate to drop me a message via the Contact form, or email. I'm always welcome to suggestions, assistance, feedback, networking, etc.
