...music has been the sideman to my heartbeat for most of my life....
Now, in my 'reclining years'....if there comes a way to B/T it to my pacemaker...
I'd live forever....much to the wonder and chagrin of some.... ;)
Live Out Loud....👍, J
Being alone with your music
I’ve always enjoyed being alone. Being alone with my favorite tunes playing adds a new layer of ‘Being here NOW’.
I remember well the first time I heard ‘In my room’ by the Beach Boys. That wonderful angst of being young and not knowing my future overwhelmed me. Those emotions we’re trained to suppress burst forward, changing me forever.
From that moment forward music became a personal thing. A private wonderful world that I had control over. It was 1966, I was 13 years old.
When we’re young, very little is under our control. Now music could set us free. It was up there with the first time, 3 years later, when I drove my car alone the first time. In preparation for the big moment, I installed my first car cassette player (by Norelco). Now I was truly free to be me.
Your stories would be much appreciated.
No words, just.... can't do this live no more, but I've got volume sans the crowd.... E/S/R/R............................................................................................. |
Meditating and praying in a cavern in the forest appear anti-social... But working for big pharma "for the good of humanity" appear a very social enterprise at first sight... Guess which one is anti-social really ? Listening music alone is not anti-social, drinking beers with a group of tired grown men speaking insanities may be.... Am i anti-social ? I am like the Christ i love men one by one between 4 eyes and i hate groups of any kind...
