I'm sitting in the recording studio waiting for the guys to finish their tracks. It's cold, It's boring, It's a hard chair that makes my butt feel like I'm sitting on nails. But on the upside, I'm not recording!! I can sing.. just not well. I can play multiple instruments, just not so you can tell what instrument it is! It amazes me that my boy, my nephew and my sons from another mom can make the music that they do. Oh, I don't doubt their talent! Of course, they are perfection!! But taking a thought, transcribing it to words, adding music, 4 different kinds of music.. and making it sound amazing are truly a mystery to me! Cooking is similar.. but I can do that!! My job with them is to feed them, drive them, make sure they show up on time, coordinate their schedules, find them gigs, motivate them and market them. I've got it easy! I am a linear person. I like things that go from point A to point B.. that have a logical conclusion and that give you a sense of completion at the end. I guess Freud would say I have a need for instant gratification and validation. Freud-dude is right! I like that. We work well together.. cause the guys couldn't show up on time to their own funeral... which has, at times, been scheduled when i'm really pissed at them!! Plus they don't like self promotion. I don't either, but since I'm promoting THEM... all is good. They are adults now.. my brain just refuses to acknowledge that, and we're all good with it. I get to spoil them, they get to get spoiled! Funny thing is.. other artists are starting to recognize that i'm "MOM" and at shows come up to me for water, band-aids, stationary.. etc. So until I can get a puppy to shower all my middle-aged hormonal maternal instincts on... I'll shower the huge heavy metal rockers that have invaded my heart.
Point of this post... I want a puppy!
