Big.

Big changes in the office lately! Casey, our marketing director, has resigned and taken a position with Red Light Entertainment, a freaking awesome artist management company. Don't worry, they manage Dave Matthews. I told Casey she HAS to stalk him a little for me. :) Here is the fantastic moment Dave and I held hands. Man, I'm jealous of Casey's new job!



Anyway, our department has gotten to move on up, so I got my first promotion yesterday. I'm super excited and really happy for what I've gotten to accomplish in my first year of working. I feel extremely blessed to have landed this gig...I worked my tail off getting in this industry, and I'll continue to work hard to prove myself. It's so fun to get validation that I'm doing a good job! I celebrated last night with a cheeseburger and Twix candy bar. I know, I party so hard.

This job definitely has its ups and downs, not to mention all the crazy people I've met/worked with. It's honestly a love/hate relationship most days. I hate the weekend and evening work, but I LOVE watching people enjoy a stellar concert. I love being around music everyday. I love saying that I got the chance to meet some of the brightest in the industry - musicians, managers, marketers and promoters alike. We'll see what the next step brings, but for now, I'm pretty happy.
