And a lot of the time, the audience wants what they know. Nothing wrong with that. Disregarding your audience is the building block of self-indulgent wank, and while that has an audience in and of itself, its not a wide audience.

"Old delta blues players referred to amplifiers as 'the devil box', and they were right. You have to be an equal opportunity employer in terms of who you're bringing over from the other side. Electricity attracts devils and demons. Other instruments attract other spirits. An acoustic guitar attracts Caspar the ghost, a mandolin attracts Wendy, but an electric guitar attracts Beelzebub." "If your brain is part of the process, you're missing it. You should play like a drowning man, struggling to reach shore. If you can trap that feeling, then you have something that is fur bearing." "Don't wipe the sweat off your instrument. You need that stink on there, then you have to get that stink onto your music." All quotes by the late, great, Don Van Vliet (Captain Beefheart) |

i believe you need to meditate to grasp notes and chords from some Universal musical force flowing in the ether |
