OK, SO HERE'S THE SERIOUS ONE.
I’ve finally started to get why the whole “no band” thing gets to me. It’s pretty easy now that I think about it. Think about how hard it would be to just look around you, when you’re trying as hard as you can with what you got, to just see that just about EVERYONE you know has got it easier than you. High Schoolers got nothing to worry about (yet), so they got it made (for now). Older kids, most of them have established bands already, probably from high school. Not ideal, considering most high school bands don’t last forever, only a few.
It doesn’t matter where the band’s going (‘cuz believe me, not too many make it far), it just gets to you when you look around at everyone doing exactly what they want when you’re STUCK. I’m stuck here with no car… it sucks (for trying to play music). Even with a new project on the horizon… it’s just not where I want it to be yet. I just wanna make the music I like, with a group of friends I can call the family unit known as a band.
But even while this new project isn’t 100% where I want it, it gives me hope and shows me that yes, I do gotta suffer a little bit for now, not doing what I want to. But in the end, in the real world, I’ll be able to find what I am looking for, which is more than a lotta people can ask for. This new thing is starting to bring new ideas to mind, but it’s gotta be refined and fixed up first.
I’m ready and willing. Even if it means dealing with the crap I’ve been bitching about in this entry for a little while longer. : )
