open letter.
It's been quite interesting really, the process of making music is one that I personally adore, accepting what I've created is a totally different story. Perhaps the it has to do with fear, maybe it's my minds way of telling me you won't be able to reach the level of your influences. What I do know is that this will always be what I do, what I live for and what I feel most connected to.
In the past I've had moments of real "take no prisioners" atittude brushed with moments of "Im doing this for me". All I really know is that it will happen, I get closer in my head to what it should be. I can taste it and smell it, can't wait no longer for it.
People sometimes mistake the want for some childish fantasy of being a rockstar millionare, not me. I just want to play and make people forget about their situations or problems, make them have fun and enjoy life.
In turn, attending concerts has turn into taking notes more than anything, I've often found myself in the middle of the set just taking in the audience and imagining what a fraction of that feeling might feel. Hundreds singing back lyrics that you probably wrote in your bedroom or car for yourself, it becomes massive and surreal in their voices.
I feel almost ready to take this one on, I know it has to be now or never. Still young but this can't wait, taking names down now.
sincerely,
G.
