Since then I've decided that I have zero interest in interacting with them. This thread went well - but overall, the sheer negativity there is not something I need.
I post here because I know you will like the T&A
Oddly, if I post up my art (music) I'm bragging. However, this rule doesn't apply to anyone else. I was feeling charitable when I made this video but the double standard was getting old.
I have a feeling some of the folks who were assholes are frustrated guitar players. What am I supposed to do? Shitty work? **** them.
One douche bag actually got so butt hurt he said "You aren't that good" - which is funny since when someone asks me "Are you any good?" I say "I'm adequate." And that is an honest answer. (It didn't bother me although I continue to jerk his chain - I would never say that to anyone who practices their art. What kind of dick says that?)
The funny thing is - I've never claimed to be particularly good on guitar or vocals. My skills are in leading a band, booking great shows and packing the room. I can hold my own, but holy shit, down here you wouldn't believe the level of talent.
Lucky for me, there are very few leaders.
