Demos have always collected dust, I cant think of any demo i did, that didnt collect dust... and various different projects, so it has always been that way and i guess will always be.

I guess if i had known it would be a pointless journey, this learning guitar and spending alot of time on craft, and countless hours programming drums, recording, only to end up with a demo anyway...i might be doing something completely different now. probably have gotten laid more, would have travelled more I think, would have partied more,

At the same time, its something that is unique to me. Nobody has quite played guitar like me, sang like me, wrote like me, thought like me, not any better or worse, but unique to me. Thats something.

The other thing is when dad went with me to the music store to buy my first guitar, he was considering the financial risk...is this numbskull gonna play this a week from now?

Another minor victory, there is no way in hell that either of would have thoughhtd still be play8ing guitar 40 years later.

by playing in bands, i was able to make some friends in school, which i may have had a hard time doing otherwise.

I discovered through playing with bands, and me singing by default, that i actually had a voice, in fact, many vocal teachers and music teachers though i had something speical. That was an entertaining thought at the same time.

FInally, what it is about is doing something right, and well, or to the best you can do it, that is priceless too.

Somebody once said that "greatness is what you do when nobody is watching"

thats a quote we should all embrace and absorb
