Lately when I'm working on, planning out, or even thinking about new music I get a feeling of hunger and excitement. Hunger to get back out there and bring it to the world, and excitement at the very thought of it. It's a feeling I haven't felt in a long time and it's absolutely fantastic. The feeling of wanting something and the anticipation of getting close to it, maybe even loving it; brings back past feelings. It's much like a first kiss with someone you've crushed on for a long time, or like the very first time you figure out how to play a song. The anticipation and excitement phase is definitely where I'm at. I want to get that first kiss with this new project; that first song. I won't be satisfied though, until I can break away from the glow of my LCD monitors and get out there on stage with my new songs and a live band behind me.

Hey man,
ReplyDeleteI found your profile on bandmix, and since it's not possible to send messages through bandmix w/out a paid membership, I figured I try this. I am starting a band and so far have myself on guitar and a singer. The two of us have been getting together and writing for the past few months and have the beginnings of some song ideas. Some of our influences are Tool, Pink Floyd, Dream Theater, NIN, Metallica, some grunge/'90s alt, etc. Let me know if you'd be interested, and I can send some rough ideas. You can reach me at erjostad at gmail. Thanks!
