Some thoughts on my career

Lately, I have been felling that I'm just tired of the same stuff. Of course, I'm speaking musically. The same tunes..the same type of gigs, it starts to get old after a while. I'm not saying that the music is boring. I think I just want to focus on other things musically. Some of the groups that I have subbed/played with are in the same place that they were 2 years ago and I'm just tired of it. I believe that this comes from getting ready to record my own material and get that going. This also does not mean that I'm about to stop playing with other groups. I just going to start focusing on the things I want to do, lie the method books, teaching, composing/arranging and recording.

Dealing with the personalities of other band members is just irritating. The things is that I will ALWAYS have to deal with people. I have to learn to be patient with them and myself. I will spend my entire life dealing with my issues and other people. I just can't let anything bother me so much. It's easy to be an emotional wreck. I don't have to be one.

Like this post. Helps me not feel so alone in my own frustrations. I like the perspective of bringing focus to your own thing. I'd like to hear your original stuff. What do you have in the works?
