one good thing about music, when it hits, you feel no pain

About Me

Hi I'm John. Born on a rock in the middle of the Atlantic. You know who you are.Music is what makes me, me. It's involved in my career, my hobbies, nearly every aspect of my life. I thought I was cut out to play it first off, from lip synching Elvis songs at my 4th birthday to playing in and recording with a metal act in a time long forgotten. I sometimes struggle with art over commerce, liking acts no one else seems to ( see a few of my favourites ), trying figure out how much longer I can be vital in the music industry. So far, I like to think it's going pretty good. I've been with my company since 1995 and have been in the music industry 17 years. I started early, grade 11 work experince in a record store and never got out. Total proponent of ' go with your gut ' way of living.Life is all about choices to me. There are good choices and bad choices. One of the same may be good for somebody and bad for another. You can choose to be happy in your place or you can choose to bitch about everything and poison all who come in contact with you. I choose to let people show me who they are, when they do, then I can make the decision of how to interact with that person. Different strokes for different folks as they say.
