Do you play live?
Thats what its all bout! Some highlights for me would be some gigs with Metaphysical Combat at Revolution in Sydney, Parliament House Canberra, Blackstump festival, St. Petersburg Russia and Finland... its all about the people & the vibe at the show yo..
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes... it would have to be the right one at the right time with the right deal. I've had some offers from people, but nothing life altering. Until then I'll keep doin my own thang as Metaphysical Productions! Helping out up & coming talent as well as producing my own music. -BRB
