Hope to not "burst anyone's bubble" here... (winking at Jean;-) ... but I'd like to address Mike's comment about anonymous people here... even though his foot is officially out of his mouth... [Linked Image]
I'm one of those people. I don't have a website, I don't have a band. I have some crap blown onto cassettes here and there and you can hear me play on my answering machine.
Playing and making my own music is a fantastic way for me to release myself. Hence I mostly play, rather than write.
My desire is growing to be heard, my desires are growing towards more songwriting..but I feel no pressure to get anywhere with it, nor do I have any belief I'll shake the world soon.
Yet I love music. It's the background to my life. I spend enormous amounts of time listening to and supporting artists both close to home and afar, mainly through all the work I do for the songwriters circle I assist with.
I've heard more singer-songwriters in the last year than most people I know of, and I take mental notes, I remember their weaknesses and adore their strengths. I'm a thinker, an analyzer...and I've been quite dedicated to assisting other artists...with my time and promotional efforts, commentary, and indirect monetary support.
So... on the members page, where are the blanks I'm supposed to fill in which tell you who I am?
Those blanks are not there. And that's why it falls short of really making any kind of statement about the members.
Where our hearts and minds are do a lot better job of telling who we are. [Linked Image]
