C. Dan,

I think this particular thread has finally pushed me over the great divide (not your fault) but it feels good and I feel a whole lot lighter.

In short, I have become so obsessed with the sound my guitar makes plugged into a twin reverb, or my old acoustic with a Dean Markley pickup on it, and my piano, that I can't pull my head out of the mixing board anymore.

Realizing it takes 2 hours a day to stay good on the guitar, 3 hours a day to stay good with songwriting and 3 hours a day to keep up with mixing, I am now wondering what in the hell I was doing spending so much time conversing about hit songs and a whole lot of other stuff when it no longer makes any sense to me to do anything but play.

So, I think I am going to stick to the song posting boards, and stay focused on writing the best songs I can that please me, because come to think of it, I really don't care that much what anything else thinks about anything anyway.

Here it is: the world is totally nuts and it will never change.

But, thanks for setting me free, Dan. C.

Hallelujah I have seen the light.

No more chat boards.

Only fretboards.

Come on Jesus, let's do this thing.

Y'all have a good time on here. I got some picking and prayin' to do.

I will be prayin' that everybody writes the songs they want to write and forgets the rest of the nonsense, realizing, as Saint Paul did, that I have been the worst offender.

Bless me Lord for I have sinned, but I shall sin no more.

Well, not as much as I used to.

Maybe some, but not that much.

I think y'all know what I mean.

Maybe.
