I hear you. It is GOOD to know we are not alone. I really thought this was an age thing though. But I'm sure most of you are younger than I, so maybe that's not it.Anyone else have this problem...
By the time I get home from work, help the kids with the homework, do my honey-do list, etc., I'm just too frick'n tired to do anything productive in the studio. The weekends are even worse.
I do get to play at church routinely - and that's a total blessing from both a spiritual and musical perspective. And I keep my chops up for that.
But beyond trying to spend a few minutes with the guitar everyday, I don't get the quality time to actually "create" something of my own. That last spurt of writing/recording was about 2 years ago
...and it's driving me crazy lately.
Any advice?
The artistic temperment doesn't help any - we are more sensitve to the way we feel than non artists. Add to that the challenges that await most of us returning from a long day of work and it's no wonder this thread has so much response.
