Remember if you have having fun people will feel it. Music is about communicating a feeling.
Also 99% of the audience isn’t going to hear a rushed fill or a snare flam. Just us nitpicky musicians.
Don’t play for us. PLAY FOR THEM.

“Da Free John’s question, “Who is the one who is living you now?”
“ that which is objectively repressed (unspeakable) soon becomes subjectively repressed (unthinkable).”
Prometheus Rising - Robert Anton Wilson
At the end of the day, people use the internet to find what they want. A queer teenager feeling isolated in the Midwest can use it to find solace and community. But a bigot can also use it to find all the “research” and “facts” he needs to bolster an opinion that was never going to be changed anyway.
Jenny Odell • How to Internet
The Net’s interactivity gives us powerful new tools for finding information, expressing ourselves, and conversing with others. It also turns us into lab rats constantly pressing levers to get tiny pellets of social or intellectual nourishment.
Nicholas Carr • The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains
“I fake it so real, I am beyond fake”
-Courtney Love
describing something well is both an act of incredible generosity and a literary challenge of the highest order.
Craig Mod • Looking Closely Is Everything
Words are magic. Words are really magic. They add so much. You can take a TikTok video, and you think the TikTok video is the end in itself. You don’t need any gloss on that, but you absolutely do. It’s so much funnier if you can articulate what is embarrassing or weird or impressive about what that person is doing. That is a great hack.

The definition of hell is: Your last day on Earth, the person you became meets the person you could have become.” - Dan Sullivan
