Music is one of the most important things in my life creatively. I have such a great love for discovering and enjoying a wide range of music. I love the live experience as a player and audience member. I love to talk music, listen to music, play music.
Just to be free to make the music i want and to hopefully find and connect with others at whatever level. I love equally playing an intimate acoustic set at a private party or on a stage in a venue.
less greed
thats difficult, so many songs spring to mind. As a kid in the 70's I would say probably watching bands like Sparks, Slade, T Rex and Abba on Top Of The pos here in the UK. The first single i ever bought was "Wuthering Heights" by Kate Bush followed by Gerry Raferty "Baker Street"
So So Many, but including...Black Crowes, Clutch, Joni Mitchell, King Crimson, AC/DC (Bon Scott era) , Rollins Band, Damned, Stranglers, Led Zepplein, Pantera, Black Sabbath, John Martyn, QOTSA, RATM, Tool, Pucifer, Zappa, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, Kings X, Jeff Buckley, Sigur Ros, Dakhabrakha, St Vincent, Neil Young, Hendrix etc....
Everything
I don't have any specific message. I hope my songs connect with the listener in whatever way they need or feel.
excited
Don't do it for the money, do it because you have to to satisfy something deep inside
Well i'm new here but so far it seems cool.
Never being totally satisfied with my performance
Absolutely. I try to get to as many local gigs as possible. We do have a pretty good if limited underground scene here along with good open mic evenings.
Patience, good people skills, networking, talent, great songs. Luck and lots of it :-)
