It's amazing to know that people care about something you're doing. Probably the most important thing that's happened to me so far in my life is knowing that people want to buy my band's demo. It may sound really trivial and stupid, but it's so touching to know that, even if it's just a way to support and they don't wanna listen, they want to help me live out my dreams. This CD is not just something I'm doing for something to do, me and my lead guitarist have written every song together, and it's so much a piece of us that it's more than you can imagine.
Actually, you probably can. Knowing the people in my creative writing class, I can tell that some of you are going to turn out to be better writersr than I could ever imagine to be (Laura, Mogget, and Chelsea, maybe Dylan, but he's just an emo kid ;]). It's like knowing that people would be interested in reading a book you wrote, or other people, it's like people wanting to hear your story.
Well, yea. I guess it's like the Rev. Dr. Hillman has been saying the whole time. We have stories. You write them, I try to, but my stories are in my music, and, God... Let me tell you... It's amazing to feel positive reinforcement on something so sensitive as music. I've had people who like rap and hip hop tell me they'll buy my band's demo and actually listen.
I don't know if I can believe it, but it hits me the same way either way.
I love it.
