As a Creator, as a musician, as a singer, as a songwriter… there is opposition, and it will slap you right up your face. And then a day, a week, a month, sometimes even years can go by in your life, because of opposition. I’m coming into your earbuds to encourage you, and help light a new fire to create!
On a documentary on Grunge, they asked Jack Endino, “Why do you think so much good music comes out of Seattle?” Here what he said, and also what another Seattle producer said about my song "Under Again".
You’ve got to overcome song writing opposition. If you don’t, it’s like a slat in the face.
I share many stories on this episode, and even included a clip of the spontaneous songwriting session I had on the yacht with Captain Otto just a couple days ago, the same night we went to the Karaoke Bar, and a guy there called me a “Rich Brat” because I said the word “yacht” instead of “boat”. It was opposition. And both him and his friend laughed right in my face.
That same night I came back to the old weather-beaten 1970 Hughes Northstar Racing Yacht, which is a “Creator Yacht”, and the former owner was a Creator, and his art is still seen inside the yacht. Now, it’s going into a second generation with my artist friend, Otto and I get to be a part of it, and create here too.
Be encouraged! Don't stop writing music!
'Love you all!
