Brass Pony and the Town Where Music Never Dies

So, it's really happening. Brass Pony is finally taking off the ground. After a buying binge this weekend, last night Thomas and I spent hours going through our finds and making prices. We even got our second customer, Sam, who bought up two of our best Dior pieces. Kevin was our first customer though, he lives in our headquarters so he gets first dibs naturally.
Anyways, it's really getting serious. Kristin is going to be our fabulous website designer and she has a brilliant vision for the site and we are planning our fashion show/launch party. It's really happening and I couldn't be more excited. It makes me want to quit my day job and just become a vintage buyer for a living. Does anyone think that that will be lucrative enough to pay off my debt and move to the city?
On a side note, I was once at kareoke, dancing to Beyonce circa 2002 and overheard someone say "Ugh, Northampton the land where songs never die" and last night I fucking realized how true that was. I mean I'm listening to T.I. right now but like PEOPLE, the main stream hip-hop we listened to in middle school/high school, can not be the ONLY music that gets played in this town. I'm serious, every night in this town (including my horrible experience at Bishops with Sam and Thom last night) is the same, I might cry. I WANT ROCK AND ROLL BACK! Give me Buzzcocks, bust out "Victoria" by the Kinks, throw on The Who, I don't give a shit, but I want to dance to rock and roll again. I'M BEGGING YOU DJ'S GET LIKE NIKE AND JUST DO IT.
