One last thing I needed to get off my chest, and then I’ll shut up about this.
Ya know. Maybe if I had years of experience of playing gigs and maybe if my music was played on a professional level, maybe other musicians would take my advice, and opinions more seriously, then. I completely understand. This is probably the reason why I’m having trouble helping out others…this is probably why they ridicule me after. Still though, we should put our ego’s aside, and help each other out as a musicians community. I kind of would like the same success other bands are getting, but it would be awesome if they can help us get there. I mean, just because you have more professional experience, than me, does not really mean you should put us down. We should all be able to help each other, and that’s what I see this as.
If other bands don’t need my help, that’s fine, but as long as I spoke my mind and got things off my chest of what I had to say to them, my job is done. I don’t feel any regrets.
I’m a big local music supporter. You should know that, since I like to plug a lot of local bands and artists on here if I like their music. I enjoy meeting new musicians and people in the scene. I like to go out and see gigs of other bands sometimes. I have been a part of local music for years, so this is why I feel it’s deserving to be honest about stuff. I’ve been a part of local music since the 90’s, but didn’t start playing out ’til about 2004, I believe.
I have been criticized in return, musicians claiming I have no experience or worse, talking crap about my music, which is what I’m used to. If that’s the best response musicians can come up with, then that proves that we don’t have a very positive music scene.
I guess it’s pointless, trying to help other musicians. I’ll just concentrate on my own music, and my own music alone. I don’t have to prove anything. Stay out of everyone’s way and my music life will be much easier.
