Lining Up Wavelengths

New Hum Love playlist up on Spotify and Apple (sorry about being a week late on this one).

If a band could tweak the song or the mix or the production so that you would fall in love with the song, they probably would.

That’s the faith and letting go that goes along with releasing music. Cause the band can’t tweak it for everyone.

The song you stream is the very best they could do. And that’s the sweetness. A herculean effort that will never satisfy everyone.

So when their wavelength lines up with yours, it’s a miracle.

Reunion Tours

You might not need to do a reunion tour. Perhaps the shows and the band and the music are better left where they were.

But a reunion coffee would probably be a good thing.

Image

The thing you put out there. It’s not going to be all of who you are. Know that going in. It’s simply one slice of a much bigger pie.

So two things that might seem to conflict but they go together…

It’s tempting to reveal more more more because there is so much more.

It’s tempting to believe that the image you put out there is all of who you are.

Building Blocks

The thing you want to build

The thing you’re building

The thing you’re going to want to build in a year or two

It helps when these are all along the same path.

If The Gig Doesn't Fit

If you get offered the gig but you know you’re not the right fit…do you still take the gig?

Maybe you got it because you’re pals with the band leader, or because you’ve got great technical chops, or because you’re not risky, or because you have solid values, or no values, or because you were available, or because you look cool, or because you’re related to someone cool, or because you’ll put up with a lot of shenanigans.

But if you still know deep down you’re not the right fit, at what point do you pass on the offer?

You get to choose. (You survived before this gig, and you’ll survive if you turn it down.)

The answers are different for everyone…but you don’t need answers for everyone.
