NACA National Convention

Wow. . .I made it. I’m exhausted and I’ve only slept a grand total of 6 hours in the past 48 hours, including the hour nap i just took in the parking lot. You see, I’m probably the world’s worst procrastinator. . .or maybe the world’s best. I’m really good at it. That on top of the fact that I had 2 different web projects this week as well as a nice chest cold made for a perfect storm of the last few days.

I woke up Saturday with no voice and a laundry list of things to get done before i left to come down here, I got done what I could before I headed up to Cleveland for the Valentine’s Party gig with The Speedbumps. I didn’t get out of the gig till 1am, and my car started acting up. So now not only do I have less than a day to get everything done on my list, I have a car that I have to fix or I’m not going anywhere.

Long story short. Everything worked out. I even got a few hours of sleep before I left at 2am this morning, and now I’m here at one of my favorite places in the world…the Opryland Hotel.

It just worked out this year that the NACA national convention was here in Nashville, so it gave me yet another excuse to come back to my home away from home. For those of you who don’t know about NACA which is probably everyone accept the people that are here, it stands for National Association of Campus Activities. In a nutshell it’s an organization that connects entertainers with college activities directors. So right now there are about 1200 college students and countless bands, solo artists, speakers, and even balloon artists here all trying to book or get booked on a college campus. This is my first experience with NACA. I’ve heard alot about it, so i’ll let you know how it goes.
