very good points people
Now what i find hard to swollow is when i spend 3 to 5 days working non stop on a song (i tend to produce everything in cubase), find it incredible, or very worthwhile by my standards, and then present it to my band only to notice a negative reaction. Since they know i work hard, they try to hide the fact that they are not completely on board with my idea. which actually just makes it all worse in the end.
So then im thinking, man i love what i just did and they dont. I want to defend my way of creating music, of perceiving it, but they dont grasp it.
Whats next?
When this happens once every 6 months, thats ok , you can live with it and put your ego aside for a couple of songs, but when it happens on a regular basis you have to start thinking about playing with other people.
And wow! there you feel the heaviness over your shoulders, all the trouble you must go through to start over again. With the work i can deal with, but the time is takes is a whole issue. You need months to get a band going. and that in the brighter situations.
So here i am thinking and scratching my head, feeling very depressed cause my dreams of rock & roll stardome seem to be fading away....
Mruff to that yo!
