the art of the pain of art, and how annoying it is

i feel like i'm pregnant, and when i finally get it together, i'll birth a huge ball of music. it's taken a while to get equipment, decent equipment, and i know it will happen. xcept now, it just feels like my whole entire fucking existence is an hourglass, waiting not to be waiting. waiting for the time to sit down and make the music.

unoriginal as the notion may be, don't u think the gestation of creativity is a real big fucking bitch?

Your faux angst has already been done ad nauseum on the "giving away your music, c/d" thread.

It's really quite unfortunate that turning into a giant cockroach like Gregor Samsa and writing about it isn't open to you anymore.

At least Gorge is consistent.

I think the pregnancy analogy makes sense, Surmounter - I spent about 8 months recording an album this year, and during that time I was frustrated that I was finding it really difficult to write anything new. I was bitching about this to someone else, and he said "Well, you can only have one baby at a time." It makes sense in a way. But I guess it'd be nice to have twins or something.

sometimes making sense trumps sarcasm Gorge.

do you say Gorge the same way you say George?

oh and thanks for ur thoughtful answer Steve. it's nice to be able to open your mouth without being referenced to past threads and derailed for a lack of ingenuity.
