It’s a pain to have to confront the fact that you don’t really like doing something that you really want to like doing.
This weekend I planned on participating in the NPR sponsored “write/record a song in 48 hours and upload it to the internet” event and carved out some time on Sunday afternoon to begin brainstorming the project. I tentatively started writing some lyrics, put together a decent riff and starting trying to record some tracks.
It was perhaps the most miserable time I have had in weeks. I bailed after about an hour and a half.
Making music by yourself is lonely, especially when you don’t really have anything in particular to say.
