Titillating Tuesday - Music

5 02 2008

Music is usually a lot more than sound. Music is emotion. Music is memory. Music can make or break a person. I absolutely love music. Having a bad day, listen to heavy rock. Having a slow and mellow day, speed it up by listening to heavy rock! Actually I love all kinds of music from Bob Dylan, REM, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones to Foo Fighters, Green Day, Guns and Roses, James Blunt, Avril Lavigne, etc etc etc. I have no particular genre or artist that I prefer. However I do have genres that I detest. Rave, house, all other beebop bullshit, R&B, rap and the likes.

How about making your own music? I have bought a guitar. Two guitars in fact. One electric and one acoustic. The electric is still in Port Elizabeth, South Africa where I had to leave it due to baggage constraints when I left for my assignment. The acoustic is with me in Albania. I also bought all the self teaching books, DVDs and other material. So now I have two guitars, heaps of multimedia, no excuses and I still cannot even play.

Some things you cannot buy are patience, will power or staying power.

Due to the traveling that I am going to have to so very soon, it seems I will not be able to take my guitar with me again. I will have to leave it behind. I can give it to someone more deserving of it than me. Someone who will not just leave it in it’s case looking fancy when people visit and ask if they can play.

Or maybe I can ship it? Best is I start making these decisions very soon!
