DO YOU consider yourself an Extrovert or an Introvert?

[libertybele]

When I was younger and still eligible (AI has a surprisingly young age limit)it was something I thought about. I have a friend who actually tried it. But there are so many people who try out for those kinds of shows that it's a crapshoot to actually make it. Those auditions you see in the opening episodes of each season are actually the second layer of auditions. The ones you see advertised where thousands line up, those never make it to TV. The scouts who are there are the ones who judge who make it to TV, and it doesn't really matter what your talent is,, if it's not specifically the kind of talent the producers are looking for, the response will be "thanks but no thanks."

That, and even if I did have success at that level, I'd be surrendering a lot of control over my career to a major corporation.

Me? I'm happy building my brand organically, taking the opportunities within driving distance, building the networks of friends to help build a reputation. If I never make it big, I'll be fine. Music is what I do for enjoyment and to make friends.

Good for you.

I've always thought I was an introvert. But with my Southern Hospitality upbringing, I'll start up a conversation with anyone I come across. Though walking the sidewalks of New York City, I'd get some strange shocked looks, like why's this Texan with a slow drawl talking to me. And then I'd see their wall come down and converse with me.

Introverted in general, but it depends on my level of pessimism.

Put me on a stage and I'm as extroverted as they come.

But on the whole, I prefer to be alone.

That's about how it works for me.  I did years in radio, so I was used to it.  Have not done that since about 1990.
