Hi Marc,
Agreed, isn't that why most men do anything? Of course there is that other reason, applause! From the very first time I stepped on stage in front of an audience, I was a late bloomer at 15, I knew it was where I wanted to be. There is no drug in the world, at least not when I was doing them in the early 60's to the early 70's, that ever gave me the high that audience adulation does. The sound of applause and the shouts, screams, whistles, etc. do something inside you that can't be replicated by anything else.
I do love putting out upbeat songs that make people move, but writing songs that touch people where they live is what makes me write.
