If you're not doing it for the love of music, it's just as well to quit.
 
You made so great sounding recordings, don't stop doing that man.
 
"My final last post" contains redundant or superfluous syllables.
In Australia this may mean you were performing, hearing, experiencing or acknowledging the Last Post for the final time.
What does the date signify?
I'm confused.
Also, the song title has confused me...Somewhere Up Their. Up their what? Trousers?
Don't chuck it all in - simply consign it to being that thing you do to retain some sembalance of sanity in the 9 to 5 world.
 
this is my 2367th last post

no fan base, no album...got some gin tho'
 
They've been at it since the age of 16. They're tired.
 
Hey,
I am new here... BUT DO NOT GIVE UP! If you love doing music do not throw in the tower. It takes time to build and be where you want to be--just don't give some folks the satisfaction in quitting. Don't you know that it takes many artists years before they ever be notice and or heard. Dang, it's a shame.. because I see talent and potential in you. GL!

That's a nice homily, but...

I got into playing drums because of Connie Francis' boobs. "Lipstick On Your Collar" had an interesting late 50's drum part. I saw her on American Bandstand and, not to be stereotypical, she had those huge Italian boobs. I was only about 10 years old but the sap was already running, so to speak, and I figured if I learned how to play drums I could join Connie Francis band and maybe I could see her naked in her dressing room.

That didn't work out, but when I got into high school I found out that playing in a band was a sure-fire way to get laid. I also found out that I really liked being on stage and entertaining people.

Along the way, I became a pretty damn good drummer.

I'm hardly the only one to get into music for less-than-pure motives. Some of them found out they were naturally talented, but really only did it for the money, or to get laid, or whatever.

But they still made some great music!

There's a great apocryphal story...

Mick Jagger was being interviewed back in the early days by someone who was kinda dissing him because the Stones were just making great rock and roll instead of some sort of "message" music. Finally Jagger said, "How do you know that when he finished 'Blowing In The Wind' Bob Dylan didn't just think something like, 'Well, that's another one in the can'.

Someone later asked Bob Dylan what he thought when he finished "Blowing In The Wind" and he reportedly said, "Probably something like 'well, that's another one in the can'".

It doesn't matter how the music comes to be made...it only matters that it get made...
 
This is always sad to see. If you think it wont work out in your favor then you probably had the wrong mindset going into it in the first place. Music should always be fun. If you enjoy making it then you shouldnt need it to work in your favor. Also, honestly money/fame doesnt come to those willing to give up. Just means your heart is not in it enough. If your passionate about music, I hope you continue to make it, if not then its better to try something else if you dont feel it.

I agree....

Homily, schmomily. Becoming successful like Dylan or the Stones is a million-to-one shot and exacts a lot of blood, sweat, and tears along the way. You'd best have something more than Connie Francis' tits to sustain you along the way, or you're going to be in for a long, miserable life.

Ha-ha-ha...LMAO
You are so right! One must bring it (or put in the efforts) and keep trying.

I gotta agree with this. And I'm also wondering, is it music that is not working in your favor? Or rap music? I can EASILY see where someone would get bored doing rap. Maybe try something new, it can be rejuvenating and inspirational. Start a punk band or something.
 
Well since they all don't know who you are around here ya'll can go eat it! Nothing gives any of you the right to judge what this man is doing, he was being gracious enough to let us his homerecording brethren and sisters know what is going on in his professional life. Did/any of you ask how many years he's been in the game? His accolades and person triumphs along side his musical accomplishments? This is why I don't come around these parts anymore because this place is filled with all kinds of down talking. Killa you do what you do and i'll see you over on gearsluts, don't waste your breath with those who know nothing of your situation and ask very little to care. Side note he said final album not final bunch of songs ala Jay-Z, ya'll get your ish together and give respect to one of our own.
