I have not wanted to be a performer snice my adolescence.
My originals consisted of an alongated riff.
Where I have attempted theory with more effort, I am understood least.
Often what is understood by musician clicks and professionals is considered effort.
It sure has not been that way to me.
It seems to all come down to aptitudes.

I could attempt a Beatles and beat rock type song with the scales. A listener rmay like that while the intellegensia may consider that an insult.

Maybe I am just not entitled to say since I have not been in that place.

There are many that are not associated with a musicians click or intellegensia that like to see what makes sense out of what they are doing.
It is something I can not put samples or even a meterenome on.

What are the members expectations on here with their services?
I know what should be understood of me, but what is formidible or good to members I look at within the context of my expression.
The second question I have is that do the members on here play in what is obtuse to them?
It matters too if they like that or not I guess.

The all prose type I have noticed with their own forms are often the most eclectic.


Good Music is anything that puts a smile on you, or makes you feel good, or feel sad, or inspires, or uplifts.

There is way more than one kind of good, sticking to form is more of a business decision than a musical one. If you are trying to write hit songs that will be played on the radio, you have to try and write those kind of songs, if you dont give a damn if anybody likes your song at all, you only have to please yourself.

Music is music, the business of music is an art form all by itself, I dont think music was intended to be a business/and or competition, but once it did, it changed how people write songs or how they perform, or how they arrange and produce their music, kind of strange really that you can change your music based on what you want to do with it.

The best time to be a musician or a songwrier is when your 12 or 13 years old and playing with some kids who are just learning too, the garbage that you make is classic, you dont know enough to write coherently and know nothing about structure.

My verse, my chorus? err? I dont know know whats that.

If we could somehow keep that in us even as we learn more and more we could make some great music.
