hmmm…

safe things = no way

safe things that are sure bets financially are seldom worth anything.
this is why I disdain doing reasonable easy projects that don’t require much effort.
they’re fucking boring and don’t do anything for me.
I want big, loud, dangerous and lively, thank you. (who’s on welfare now? all them people who always take the safe and easy way, rather than taking risks, creatively or otherwise. )

thought of the day, and advice to those who seek to do cool collaborations of the awesomest, HIGHEST calibur, MOST PERFECT-EST…

thought of the day, and advice to those who seek to do cool collaborations of the awesomest, HIGHEST calibur, MOST PERFECT-EST…
to those who have HIGH standards, and want SPECIFIC THINGS that are perchance highly un-
-usual
-reasonable or
IM-
practical
“don’t expect people to be cool, because almost all of them aren’t.”
addendum:
1. cool is defined as being the right ones for the above job.
2. I know TONS of such people. you are my friends (some of them.)
meaning: take heart, and know what you look for, and look REAL HARD high and low for it. and collect a ton of it. but start by realizing that if you’re like me, a high-standarded perfectionist with tall orders like this, know that almost everyone isn’t what you’re looking for.
then find the exceptions and find as many as possible.

in keeping with this theme I heard of tonight of “what the fuck am I, a musician, doing with my life?”

in keeping with this theme I heard of tonight of “what the fuck am I, a musician, doing with my life?” which I heard from at least three friends tonight, I shall say:
what should I be doing, and how should I be doing it, and woe is me but how do I always have not a clue what to do, when everyone else?
and fuck’s sake, don’t tell me that no one else does, it’s bullshit!
everyone else doing this is “DOING” SOMETHING.
I’M NOT. I’m just SITTING here.
other people are PLAYING MUSIC, WRITING MUSIC, RECORDING MUSIC (ok, yes, I do a little of that, yes, a little playing, yes.)
but other people have DOZENS more gigs than I, many more students, more connections, more ACTUAL ACTIONS,
more of a sense of “WHAT” the options even “ARE.”
I NEVER get this, ever!
in anything.
fucks sake, where “IS” my attention…
p.s. you likely won’t be able to advise me.
if you say your advice the wrong way (not easy to explain what “the wrong way” is,) It’ll just glance of me, I’ll not hear it, I’ll fight it, or decide you’re a dick.
so confusing, life, yes.

man, cool music really DOES

man, cool music really DOES make me not give a fuck!
a wonderful thing, who needs drugs. I got beats and the blues and dominant sharp 9 chords, bitches.
