It is a life preserver
Can I convince you everything is fine? Because it already is.
No your problem is confidence.problem, I believe, has mostly to do with sound.
Thats the fuckin spiritI WILL overcome this!
With a name like that? seriously.ONLY positive encouragement from now on.
Guys please do not EVER tell me I'm fucked, or that I should give up. Or anything like that. EVER!
I am bad about internalizing that shit. I am here to vent frustration so LET ME DO IT.
Not even reading this. Either encouragement, and NEVER tell me I'm screwed, or piss off. There is no argument or debate. If you don't like it, there are a thousand other threads here. Don't come back here with one further post arguing with me. You either respond with agreement, or don't respond at all.It's somewhat unfair to ask us opinions, then tell us to only give you positive ones? We have tried that and you insist on telling us we're wrong and you really can't do it.
You can come on here and rant if you like - maybe that makes you feel less bad, but what do you want us to do? Believe your opinion that your musical life sucks (which we've already said it doesn't) or keep telling you the mojo hasn't been lost permanently. We cannot win? You are convinced everything is wrong - your tone, your creativity, even your ability. What do you want of us? I said OK - if you feel like that give up. Or, do something about it. I don't mean do something about your tone - it's good. Your creativity to me seems fine too. You think I'm wrong. It's not for me to persevere in convincing you.
Maybe it would be better to find somebody local ... like a friend. A real one, not a cyber-friend. Cry on their shoulder, or get cross and kick a few things, whatever you need.
Somebody once wanted me to run a music course for people who were not musical, for therapy. I tried one session and the idea that music is a therapy (something I'd heard lots of times) went right out the window. It can be a therapy, for some, but its a depressant for others. I'd consider taking a break from it, because it's not working.
The idea that you cannot get a 'tone' is stifling your creativity is laughable. You have a guitar, just play the damn thing - unplugged if necessary, or thorough some real pedals and an amp - I cannot imagine any guitarist NOT having an amp and only having a computer and plug-ins? Surely that's not how you do it is it?
Give it a rest for a week then start again. If it doesn't work after a short break, then give up the guitar and try something else. There is a phrase flogging a dead horse? We do not believe you are hearing what we hear - therefore we just cannot convince you. If this is where you are in your head, then to keep trying is fruitless and maybe damaging to your health.
That says lots about you, and nothing about music. Vent away - just don't expect us to reply. We tried.
haha..Where you learn to talk with people?Not even reading this. Either encouragement, and NEVER tell me I'm screwed, or piss off. There is no argument or debate. If you don't like it, there are a thousand other threads here. Don't come back here with one further post arguing with me. You either respond with agreement, or don't respond at all.
wowIt's MY THREAD!
you need to chill. I'll keep posting that stuff here even if I'm the only one still posting in here. But don't come back telling me "I'm screwed" or need to "give up" again. If anyone is allowed to say that stuff, it's ME and ME ONLY, because it's only to vent.
yeah id quit while your ahead..Don't like it, don't come back. I won't argue this point any further.
take it somewhere else. Seriously dude, do you think someone will do a project with you after a rant like that?If anyone is allowed to say that stuff, it's ME and ME ONLY, because it's only to vent.
