I Love Music.
I've always loved music. I doubt there's been anything I've loved any more than music. I love listening to it, I love playing it, I love thinking about it, I love talking about it. It's probably the only thing I talk about. I love teaching horn lessons because I get to talk about music.
One thing I especially I love to do with music is figure out how people have made such GOOD music. This video is currently playing as I type this:
Now, I'm done trying to convert people to liking my music. I understand everyone has their own taste. You may play this video and not really feel anything special towards it.
But I really do.
First of all, I love Bill Callahan. In this video he plays all my favorite songs of his. I get to hear such lovely songs done live by his own hand (and others). However, I also get to see HOW he does it.
It's remarkable how much time I spend doing this. I just sit and watch.
I want to KNOW how these people I love do their craft well. One day I may figure it out.
That's about it for now. Very inconsequential post, but I was so greatly overcome watching this youtube clip. Who are you watching? Who's craft are you trying to figure out?
Oh, and I just want to note, I want to meet Bill Callahan and play on one of his albums one day.
