I Think Grief Is A Step Towards

I'm All About Being Prudent. And I've Started To Appreciate Experiences More Than Actual Objects.

I've Always Been A Fan First And Foremost - Obsessing Over Bands And Seeking Out Bands, And Spending Hours And Hours Listening. When I Played Music, The Scope Of My Fandom Became More Myopic; I Was Focusing On The Bands We Were Touring With, Or The Bands On The Label. And You're Always Positing Yourself In Relation To Other Bands. Since I Haven't Been Playing, I Feel A Little Less Cynical. I'm Able To Seek Out Music And Approach It Strictly As A Fan.

Over The Years, Music Put A Weapon In My Hand And Words In My Mouth It Backed Me Up And Shielded Me, It Shook Me And Scared Me And Showed Me The Way; Music Opened Me Up To Living And Being And Feeling.

We Brainstorm An Idea And Then We Do Flesh It Out A Little Bit - We Come Up With A Script, Mostly To Have Beats And A Sense Of A Story And A Narrative Arc. Often When We Get Into The Space And Onto The Location, That Changes And Something We Discover In The Moment Becomes The Moment, Becomes The Story, Becomes The Character.

From A Self-conscious Standpoint, It's Hard To See Myself On A Screen In A Way That Isn't Just Me Playing Music Or Doing Something Silly.
