Ok. Cool. I have a blog again. I think the last time I had a blog was 2001.. When livejournal was a BIG deal. I actually think my livejournal can be found in some graveyard somewhere. I wouldn’t dare go read it. I don’t want to remember how pathetic I was 10 years ago. It’s amazing to think how much people change over a short span of time like 10 years..
I’m at work right now. Blogging via cell phone. Ahhh technology.
Speaking of technology.. I have a new endeavor as a musician. I’m trying my hardest to start a new band/project. After being out of the whole music scene for so long. 2 and a half years at this point. Its veryyy hard to break back into.. So hard in fact that I’m stuck on choosing genera that would do well with today’s abstract music tastes.
I have come up with this.. and mind you. It is still in very pre-planning stages.. "trance/electronica/ambient-rock" yes. I even find it hard to picture right now. But I am determined to make it work. I haven’t heard of anyone doing anything similar.. So it could either be awesome. Or a total flop.
Finding the time to even sit down and collect my thoughts about this whole adventure is hard enough. Where I’m going to actually find the time to practice and play shows... well.. That’s a far cry from where I’m sitting in life right now.
I've messed around with some ideas on the computer in my fleeting moments of free time. Electronic music is something I have only created out of boredom. And the songs that have been born of it are mediocre at best. Trying to get into the mindset of... ok this is me taking something to the next level. Is very difficult. There are so many good electronica producers and artists out there I feel as if I don’t stand a chance creating something like they do. Granted they have all the tools, time, and money, to do this for a living. So I guess they have somewhat of an advantage over me. Whereas I have 2 kids, a wife, a fulltime job. And thennn this faint dream that I could still do something with music.
Obviously in life priorities take the lead. I wish that wasn’t the case. If we didn’t have to think like that. So structured. We would have more time to live out our dreams. Try new things. I may be an anarchist at heart. Haven’t decided.
Over the next few blogs you will be introduced to me. My life. My loves. And everything in between. This blog is more for me to poorly write about things I care about. Or even things that I hate. Because let’s face it. Life doesn’t go the way we want it to sometimes.
