you read in the intro, I left NYU for a “chance” of becoming a recording artist in London, primarily because I was tired of being around so many people who found comfort in failure. Other people might have viewed my ditching an education from NYU as catastrophic for my future, but the last time I checked, NYU didn’t have a class for being a pop recording artist as big as the late, great Prince. (The moment I met George Michael in London was the moment I was going into a movie theater in Leicester Square to see Prince’s Purple Rain. What an inspirational day, I’d say.) Before the plane touched down at Heathrow, I knew I wanted to be a pop star—not pretend to be one, but really take a chance to live as one (to me, the definition of stardom was to be able to create, sing and perform for a living—it wasn’t only having the opportunity to have a hoard of money); and I knew I had something that was worthy enough for the category. That was my big dream, and I decided to embark on a trip across the pond to try my best to make it all come true.
I was ready for the opportunity and didn’t put up any psychological roadblocks to sabotage myself. And I got the deal, the record, the tour, and the fans (all five of them!). Mission accomplished. Even though I left music, I didn’t exit through the back door solely because I was afraid to dream about being successful in it. With an inner voice as loud as the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, I had no other choice but to find the courage to leave music, which was as bold as choosing to dive into it in the first place. Trust me, you probably have never heard of me before this book, but as I hinted in the Intro, if you do a little Googling, you’ll find all that “Larry Loeber” recorded—when I was thirty-two years younger.
