And When You Don't Have

In My Own Musical Existence I Don't Feel That Being A Guitar Player Is Like The Best Thing On Earth To Be. I Would Rather Be A Balanced Musician. Playing In A Group, I'm Tending To Think More About The Music And Less About The Guitar. That's Just Me Getting Older. I'm Not Interested In Being A Virtuoso Guitar Player Or Anything Like That.

We Would All Like To Be Able To Live An Uncluttered Life, A Simple Life, A Good Life.

If You're Able To Enjoy Something, To Devote Your Life To It Or A Reasonable Amount Of Time And Energy, It Will Work Out For You.

I'm Not Trying To Clock Scores In This Lifetime, It's Just That Things Are Better Now Than They Were Like Five, Ten Years Ago. Music Has Gotten A Lot Better. There's A Lot Of People Who Are Committed To - Soulfully.

If You Can Create A Reality That Is Entirely Fictitious, It Doesn't Owe Anything To This Stuff Out Here, But You Interact With It On Your Own Terms. I Mean, If You Took It To The Point Where Finally You Get, Say, Tactile Feedback, So You Were Wired In In Terms Of The Whole Nervous System. The Sensorium. You Would Have The Ultimate Art Form. I Mean, Any Painter Would Want It, Any Filmmaker Would Want Access To It You Know, Any Musician Would Want Access To It. It Would Eliminate The Need For The Divisions Between What We Describe As The Arts, Converting The Whole Thing To Experience.
