Fuck. First the Blazers lose to the Clippers, now this. I still have representation in LA but I live in NYC now and plan on staying here. This sucks.
 
Was he getting you much work in NY? Maybe this is a good thing.
 
No they weren't but they were getting me some good auditions. But yes, this could be a good thing if I can find another agent.
 
Did he give you a reason like he didn't think you were performing well or that he thought you could do better than he or some crap like that?

"Who's your representation back east"?

"I didn't... I sort of freelanced on my own, kind of found my own things."

It's a she and all she said was is "your contract's up and we can't afford to keep you on" which is bullshit. It could be as simple as I haven't booked anything in a year and that's true.

Fuck her then! (Not literally in your case of course)
 
I recommend craigslist. Lots of agents on there.
 
might want to try referral through fellow thespians. just a thought. good luck Eric! sometimes there are no mistakes.
 
Somehow, Someway this is gonna work out great for you.

Rooting for you, Eric!!

I've put out calls and emails to casting directors who know and like me and am hoping they'll guide me to an agent. I also called an agent that knows my work. It still sucks. I have friends with agent who just dropped me and I have better credits than them.

Thanks!!!

Maybe your presence in Portland could land you a spot on Grimm!

That would be cool.
 
Good luck Eric! You will find a new agent that will bring you lots of work.
 
You should lobby for a regular character on Portlandia..perfect gig for you
 
Thanks guys. I just got good news. DGRW (a very good agency) is bringing me in to meet with the whole office on April 14th. If that goes well, I'll be back on my feet. Whew, this makes me feel a little better. And yes, Riverman, Portlandia would be awesome. By the way, is your avatar a picture of you? I like to imagine that's what you look like.
 
Rooting for you as well, Eric. Good luck with DGRW.

Edit: BTW, if you're planning on an upcoming USO tour for your cabaret, I'll buy you a kabob in Kabul

Don't lie! You imagine him stripped naked with only a blazer logo to cover his shaft

It's me about 3 years ago
 
I always wanted Portlandia to have a Blazer fan blogger sequence. You'd be perfect

. You live in Kabul? I have done a USO tour with a celebrity basketball team about 7 years ago.

Yes! You look like such a pleasant man and you're the most positive person here.
 
You deserve better, Eric.
 
I could be your agent, bro. The best I could get you is the Ross Ragland Theater in Klamabama though.
 
Things happen for a reason man, best of luck!
