Making music attracts people, I don't think any musician can say they don't want their music to be attractive. Some don't want to draw a certain crowd cause they might think their undesirable. Some people join bands or start become musicians just to become attractive. I know some people come into my life just because of my music, maybe they don't even like me. It only gets to me after awhile of being around the person. I'm thinking about it right this second and i really like that kind of attention. These types of relationships are somehow inspiring even when they end in ruin.
Soiled relationships and serious musicians are a hard mix. You need someone very understanding. I would have to be really committed and understanding myself. The amount of time an artist puts in to their career can be ridiculous. It seems to get even more intense the more successful you become the further away you are and the less time you have.
The point is that its hard to to make time for all the other things in life that people miss when their working their asses off. It is to this end that I guess I always go for girls that aren't even close to who I think my soul mate is. Obviously I'm not ready for a good relationship anyway, music is just too important. Music is listed on my top three most important things to me. I guess I'm trying to lead the life of the "true artist" and see what life will inspire me to become. This true artist unfortunately seems to only be able to be faithful to one thing, his art. I'm still looking for miss-know-it-all everyday! No opportunity is ever passed ; )
I was surprised today when I seen my first window and it was daylight!! Of all the days it was Valentine's!! I started making music late and got into a "that trance" (see blog post "Natural High). I bite the dust :( At least the session was great I'm over half way done writing and pre production recording on my next LP! Writing a lot of love songs which is no surprise lol! I HAVE A TITLE!!! Its a secret :)
Anyway because the energy is dying and my destiny is probably to sleep most of the day...if I stay up I'll be a wreck.
Happy Valentines Day (you know who you are),
