Finally working on something of value again. Setting deadlines for myself to finish my current feature film script. Gonna film it myself, since there is no help to be found in my universe to make my art. Fuck it!
Still feeling bad about all the time wasted on music. All the dedication to the piano...But at least I learned it; And I wasn't sure I would've been able to do that back in those days, with all the people around me telling me I'm crazy to start so late and all that bullshit.
Now I know that my lot is to do it myself and that is why it has taken me so long. I had to learn it all!!
There comes a time in a man's life when he must realize certain things. I cannot put all that time into the music biz only to play in my living room....And I'm not earning any dough in the meantime!!! So then if I'm not earning any dough I'd better be doing something towards a greater goal. Unfortunately the piano is not going to work. I love the piano...always will. Damn that fucking thing to hell!! It really is a marvel of my culture...That is Western culture's great side. To all the thinking men of the past that have helped to perpetuate the collective intellect...That does somehow keep going.
What about gigs?
Well, that's easy...Fuck em! Except for some good vibes and partying like my weekly hit at the Wine Bar and playing with friends in crazy projects. I could give a shit.
No one gets back to me. I follow up to no avail so whatever. Let some student playing brunch music go for it.
Haha...that's a good one. Gigs. Yeah, well...if there are some to be had perhaps I'll do it. But staying in top form only in hope of landing an important gig is ridiculous!!!! Fucking ridiculous!!
But with some discipline I might be able to pursue something. Anything. A way to express or create in my life without feeling the wrath of Sisyphus all fucking day...
