« Golden State | Main | Stay Gold, Pony Boy » April 08, 2002NervesOften, when I have an important audition, I won't say anything to my friends or family, beyond my wife. I know that my friends and family get their hopes up for me, the same way I get my hopes up for myself, and sometimes that messes with my head. It's like knowing that half the stadium is friends who have shown up to watch me play in The Big Game. :) So, it just hit me this morning, there must be thousands of people (based on my webstats) who know about these auditions today. Jesus. Talk about filling the stands! Well, it has worked in the past, so I'll do it again: would you please spare a moment for me today, at 2:30 PM PDT and again at 5:00PM PDT? I swear, in the past when I've asked for people to send me mojo, it has really worked. I'm the most skeptical bastard on the planet, but I swear to god I felt it. I also realized this morning that I feel this extra pressure to not blow it today, because I stayed home from the vacation, and I have spent the whole weekend preparing. I mean, there is really a lot at stake this time out, and I can't blame it on not having time, or whatever, if I mess up. However, I am super prepared...nearing that place where I'm over-prepared. I had time to create full characters, as well as get extremely familiar with the material. The only thing I could do to be more prepared, is memorize the script, but I don't ususally memorize material for a first audition, becuase memorizing lines can lock me into a performance. If a producer or director wants me to change a performance a bit one way or another, it's much easier to make those changes when I have the sides in my hands. Of course, at this stage, the other actors have all been in on this at least once, in some cases twice or three times...so I'll have that working against me. Heh. I have just realized something: for the first time in a very long time, I feel nervous about an audition. Not nervously excited, but anxious. I feel like there's a lot at stake this time, a lot more than usual. Oh boy. Please send that Mojo as quickly as you can. I need it. :) Comments

So if you could spare me a minute`s thought then I´d appreciate it as well. 11 am German time. No idea what that is in your part of the world, sometime at night I fear...

Much Love, Don't be fooled by the timestamp....this mojo was post-dated...but pre-sent MOJO MOJO MOJO Posted by: samplephiliac at April 8, 2002 05:57 PMLooks like I'm a little late... Josh Posted by: JoshAct at April 8, 2002 06:08 PMMojo... mojo... I've had my fricking head plastered to my monitor for a couple days sending out mojo. It's now 6:30 PDT. I hope all the mojo everyone is sending and the forehead dent on my screen worked! Posted by: Thumper at April 8, 2002 06:30 PMi found this from an old teen magazine on some website: JINX!!!! Posted by: Hamoki at April 8, 2002 06:45 PMJinx? Posted by: Candy at April 8, 2002 06:51 PMGot the call for mojo just a little too late, but I will gladly send you a gentle wave of post-audition mojo cuddle. It's always good for the cool down. In return, all I ask is for everyone to send me small increments of mojo all this week. I have a huge audition in NYC with the Met on Sunday and starting Wednesday, we're on observation. Wish me luck! Posted by: Artemitis at April 8, 2002 07:01 PMWill, Good Luck! I would love to see you in some movies or tv. I have enjoyed your acting since the Buddy System....I love that movie, even though no one seems to mention it that much. You had the cutest raspy voice when you were young. And then came along Stand by Me and the rest is history! Anyway, good luck and I hope it goes well for you! Posted by: Your fan at April 8, 2002 07:03 PMHere's to hoping Mojo can time travel to the past Posted by: thomas at April 8, 2002 07:06 PMLet's hope we see you on a new weekly series. Go Sparks McGee! Posted by: Rookwood at April 8, 2002 07:08 PMDon't fuck it up. OH....sorry, that came out wrong. That's how my Dad used to encourage me. Anyways, my mojo was sent at 2:30.Hopefully you got it. Posted by: Tav Dude at April 8, 2002 07:09 PMHere's some Mojo for tomorrow's audition. What time is it? I will be sending some major Mojo then, decked out in my Wil Boxers and Tee Shirt, just showed up today watching Toy Soldiers and Stand By Me, thinking, Wil is the best, the greatest actor ever. Much Love, Who has just learned the comfort of boxers and is enjoying them, too bad they don't work under my clothes, being a girl it just doesn't look right. Posted by: Littlesleepyone at April 8, 2002 07:15 PMGah! Comments are back on and a mojo call went out, and I missed it all because I don't have a computer at work. Nuts to your asthmar. ;-) Hope things went well for you today, Wil. Posted by: Mandy at April 8, 2002 07:48 PMI'm sorry I didn't get to send the mojo, I wasn't around! But I do miss the comments, even if there are a bunch of fools who come around and post stupid things. Good luck, can't wait to hear how you did! Posted by: chica at April 8, 2002 07:50 PMHey Wil! Since you've been covered so far for the first shot.. here's some mojo for the second. ... But to tell you the truth.. I'm holding back. Yep I'm a bastard.. bitch.. something that mothers around the world would gasp at. You see... I'm meeting Jack Black tommorow. Tenacious D. So I'm sure you understand. ooooh it's gonna be soo cool. So instead of mojo folks... Send Jim Beam. or Bob Hamel with Jim Beam. Whatever works. ^_~ -MKF Posted by: MissKittyFantastico at April 8, 2002 07:55 PMOk, so I sent mine in, but then I realized something. If Wil just let the comments out for this one time for the mojo, then disables it again, I'm taking my mojo back. I need my mojo, anyways. Can't score enough as it is. Posted by: Jun at April 8, 2002 08:08 PMPositive thoughts are flowing for ya! Posted by: Rachel at April 8, 2002 08:09 PMI wish you good luck, and tons of positive thoughts.

Posted by: terry at April 8, 2002 08:13 PMWil, Asking for encouragement is good for a quick boost, but lets get to the root of the problem... The reason you are nervous is because you're placing too much importance on this audition. You're going into this with the wrong mindset. Be vigilant and there WILL be other opportunities just as good or better for you in the future. You need to go in there with complete confidence in your abilities. You have to walk in there thinking you are the sh*t. This is NOT something that you will be able to do if in the back of your mind you're placing this job opportunity up on a pedestal. Life WILL go on if you don't get this. "Success is achieved first through the mind, then through the world, never the other way around." -Mike Posted by: Mikeman at April 8, 2002 08:14 PMI wish you good luck, and tons of positive thoughts.

Posted by: terry at April 8, 2002 08:14 PMWil, I know casting sessions can be tough, Dang I am never on time to send the mojo at the right time. But know that no matter what time I always have time to spare MOJO for you Wil. Good Luck! Happy to hear your auditioning so much, can't wait to see you in your next exciting adventure. Posted by: Marie at April 8, 2002 09:22 PMI know this is a few hours late, but MUCHO MACHO MOJO, DUUUUDE! My mojo went out to you earlier today (twice!) and only one question remains: how did it go?! I know -- you can never really tell until you get the callback (or two months later when you still have not heard), but you've enough experience, I'm sure, to have a gut feeling. Here's hoping it went well, and that you get the gig(s). If every actor in LA had this kind of mojo behind him/her, none of us would be starving or behind on rent ;-) Posted by: David at April 8, 2002 09:32 PMHere's some delayed MOJO for ya Will!! I know it's late, but it's never too late for mojo. I'm concentrating right now, and mentally strenghthing you. Hope everything went your way, and even if it didn't all this mojo had to have made you stronger. Posted by: Mike at April 8, 2002 10:10 PMWil Didn't even start up the computer until 10 pm today. I spent most of the day going up to Sacramento and back so I didn't have a chance to see your mojo request. I hereby grant you belated mojo which you can store until such as time as you can use it. :) Perhaps with the hooker and beer comment fallout :) Posted by: john the transplanted nebraskan at April 8, 2002 10:24 PMyoung grasshopper, the mojo is on it's way. good luck *big smile* Posted by: liz at April 8, 2002 10:27 PMSending Mojo... *thinks real hard* I missed you today, but you can take my mojo out for some air for your Tues and Wed auditions. Just be sure to send it back Thurs morning or I'm toast. Posted by: Vaughan's Typewritter at April 8, 2002 10:29 PMMojo can probably travel through time as well as space. (And I'll spare you the quote.) So belated mojo is just as good as the stuff that was on time! I'll even toss in a Jojo with that Mojo. Posted by: Jellyn at April 8, 2002 10:29 PMEverytime you say Mojo I think of that scarey guy from Excalibur, Mojo Mayhem. So I never plan on giving you any Mojo. Please don't be sad. My mojo for you is traveling back through time as I write.... Posted by: Lori at April 8, 2002 11:06 PMhello i'am the mojofairy fill free to ask for my help just say the magic words three times mojo mojo mojo and i'll come. Posted by: parvati at April 8, 2002 11:10 PM*concentrates intensly as he sends all the good mojo he can muster your way* Damn my working graveyards! damn.....my job has forsaken me, wil will forsake me...i'll be foresuk. Good luck. Posted by: adeversole at April 8, 2002 11:23 PMLast night, I had a dream that I logged on here and comments were back. I swear to god. So this is what I've become, evidently -- a person whose brain is devoting valuable subconscious processing time to creating precognitive dreams about Wil Wheaton Dot Net. Ah, if only I could harness this power and use it for the forces of... well, perhaps not Good exactly, but at least Getting Good Stuff. Like Spacestation tickets and hot lovers and cheese snacks and a loyal army of metal tarantulas. And yes, mojo for Wil. 'Cause you gotta feed the source, right? I'm sending my mojo back in time to ya Posted by: os2kenobi at April 8, 2002 11:38 PMwe got "comments" back! I'm loading my Mojo gun. POW!! I just shot you full a'Mojo Posted by: nitz at April 9, 2002 12:23 AMI feel a great disturbance in the Force, as if hundreds of voices as one all called out: "MOJO"... Uh-oh - I suddenly had 'Comic-book-shop guy' voice superimposed in my head as I re-read that. Dweeb alert!! Ahem... There was a young actor called Wil. Loads of Mojo from the UK, you'll do fine!! Just trying to work out what time it'll be here when you have the auditions to send that extra mojo at the correct time, sometime this evening I thinks! Time zones are a nightmare! Good luck :-) Posted by: jus_mep at April 9, 2002 01:07 AMI guess I'm a day late and a dollar short for the "mojo rush" So, I'll just say I know you did well, I've never been disappointed in anything I've ever seen you in. Let us know ASAP!!!!! Posted by: BabyNurse at April 9, 2002 01:15 AM::sends extra brainwashing mojo:: Good luck. You show(ed) them Wil! Posted by: tjeu at April 9, 2002 01:34 AMWell I was on a plane somewhere over the atlantic at the appointed time but I reckon its never to late for some mojo- moooooojo ????

Picture if you will...fueled only by beer, his PS2 and lack of sleep, young Wil Wheaton weaves a twisted path in and out of the Audition Zone. Go get 'em tiger! "I'm not an actor, but I play one on TV" Posted by: rºB tH3 gE3k at April 9, 2002 02:04 AMI know you've probably had your auditions by now but, being in England, I always get the comments later than everyone else. Chief MoJo Rising, "The West is the best". Posted by: billybale at April 9, 2002 04:28 AMWil, Big ups on comments being back up,word!! Posted by: billybale at April 9, 2002 04:31 AMWell Sorry for the lateness of the Mojo, but definately I send it for safe keeping for next time or this time if you are waiting nerivously for an answer on whether you got the part. *MOJO MOJO MOJO!!!* I hope that you have a great day and have fun. Tootles from ArtisticSpirit Posted by: Artisticspirit at April 9, 2002 04:43 AMI, too, am late with my mojo, but just so you have it for next time: So I've been looking at some of the comments here, and I think "Click ONCE To Post" button needs to make a comeback. Posted by: Jun at April 9, 2002 05:10 AMHey Uncle Wil, I sent you all my bestest mojo at 5pm sharp. How'd it go? Did it help? Or were you so overwhelmed by everybody's mojo flooding your way that you couldn't say a word? http://us.imdb.com/Name?Lebowitz,+Adam+%27Mojo%27 Posted by: LittleGuy at April 9, 2002 06:09 AM

You shall have it through out the week. Hopefully directors and producers will wake up and hire good talent. So, what is that in central time? 12:30 and 3? Mojo is on its way, Uncle Willie.

You know, before Sept 11, that would have ben funny ... Ah, well. Mojo, dude. Crush the bastidz. Posted by: Janis C. at April 9, 2002 11:52 AMRemember to not take this personally, it's not. OK...So now Wil's newest topic DOES NOT have the Could SOMEONE please PM me if I've missed something here...lol Thanks Posted by: bluecat/redblanket at April 9, 2002 12:49 PMI was kind of wondering the same thing bluecat.

Well I'll be bak regardless. Posted by: billybale at April 9, 2002 09:06 PMcommenting on next post: Happy Mondays broke up after heavy drug abuse. The lead singer got clean and formed a new band, Black Grape. This was around 1995. They made a couple of less successful albums, I don't know if they still exist, they may have just faded away by now. But I saw them live shortly after the formation of Black Grape, and it was basically Happy Mondays music. Very festive. Posted by: tjeu at April 10, 2002 08:07 AMWhile mine was just a wave in an ocean of Mojo sent to Wil, my words went with him as his tie back to all our thoughts. Cool. Way cool. No... Hella Cool. Hella Hella Hella! My week is made. OK I am now sadly convinced it was a MOJO inspired May I please have directions to THE BETTY FORD Futher to the info on the Happy Mondays, a new movie opened this week in the UK called 24 Hour Party People. It tells the drug-addled story of the Factory record label and the bands on it, including the Mondays and New Order. It's pretty good. see review at www.lazycinema.com Posted by: Paul at April 10, 2002 09:02 AMThe word "Wil" was used 152 times :-/ I can't get people to say my name even once. you and your goddamn popularity :) Posted by: shawn at April 10, 2002 09:35 AMSeeing as the latest posts aren't allowing comments still, was this one a mistake?
