It’s ok to “play” guitar – play is good… just strum and sing your heart out

This from a few days ago. Just ends up on the page. Not sure I was able to communicate what I wanted to say. But there’s something about the stream of “stuff” which interests me… the kind of thing I return to later and try to make sense of. Bringing new information. The accompanying drawing takes the tone and goes somewhere else… that’s just the way it goes. I draw (for 10 minutes) after writing in the morning. I took the initial “rough” drawing and worked on it some more later. It’s a great way to generate ideas. Going so quickly you don’t have time to overthink it… anyway… here’s the written stuff:

There is always the question... of... what is the point? why make stuff? why write" songs? ... make “art”... It's not about “hey look what i can do”... It's more about... “How do i say this?” ... “What does this mean?” ... “All this confusing stuff which goes on inside... This is I how it gets processed... know what i mean”?I don't know... Too easy to get sucked into the pissing contest of musicianship- especially guitar players. It always feels so pointless... The interesting part isn’t how you can wank faster than anyone else or flawlessly repeat something… It’s what it means... that’s the interesting part. (to me anyway)
