Ha, well, don't kid yourself, sitting alone in a dark room making music is a good portion of the rock'n'roll lifestyle too (wink). I personally think everyone's life is interesting, regardless of what they do or how they choose to do it, as long as they're doing it for the right reasons and getting something meaningful out of it. That's why I got into music. By contrast, however, my brother is also a gifted guitarist; but he works in a factory, has three kids and a house, and has rarely, if ever, left the small town we grew up in... He's happier than a pig in sh_t though, and we've had many a philosophical debate about that. My dad, on the other hand, is an outdoorsman, lives in a log cabin on 50 acres of bush in the middle of nowhere, hunts for his food, and cuts his own firewood... Yet he too is a happy and reasonably fulfilled person (save the loss of my mother years ago). So, as I see it, if you love your kid and your dog, don't mind what you do for a living, and also manage to get something spiritual out of playing the LinnStrument and making music, I'd call that a win. And I know a lot of miserable rockstars.Reckon104 wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2019 4:48 pm I would love to hear it! And thanks again for introducing me to his stuff, I've really been enjoying it.
Sounds like you probably have a lot of interesting musical stories to tell. At this point, mine mainly consist of someone sitting in a dark room playing the Linnstrument all by his lonesome after the kid and dog go to sleep!
That said, yes, life on the road and a long career in this crazy business of making music has definitely left me with many a tale to tell. Now, whether or not they're interesting stories, mind you, depends on whether or not you ask my mother-in-law (smirk).
Cheers!
