Going On Seventeen: Life in a Band

THC: What event would signal to you that you had succeeded in the music industry?

JA: Basically, a financially sustainable music career.

THC: Would that mean getting paid more than you are now?

JA: I am comfortable now, but that is due to the generosity of Scott Vincent, the owner of the record label we're on. When bands get picked up by a record label, the label invests a lot of money into them, and if they cannot extract the money, they get dropped. So the idea is to earn Scott's money back and to make enough money for me. I would like somewhere to live, considering that I am currently homeless. I've been couch surfing among friends for about a month and a half. It really wears on you. It gives you a crick in your neck and makes your back hurt.
