i'm gonna be the biggest thing since elton john
seriously though, i play cause i like doing it, it gets me high plus a couple hundred extra bucks a month. i don't really want to get into the big business side of it...selling my songs to a corporation and having someone else tell me when where and what i will play does not appeal to me. i'll stick with private recording studios and self-released cd's - it's not a good way to make a living, but it's a hellofalotta fun

I want fame cause that means more people will get the message i want to say to the world. Its a game of chess, you gotta make the right moves at the right time and think 5 moves ahead. The internet is whats gonna help us, if all goes well and the chess game goes our way the record companies are gonna be askin me to set the terms of our contract and if not i spent my whole life playin music and havin a great time livin the life, which is what its all about anyway

i hear ya..it'd be great to achieve fame, say the way that phish achieved fame. no radio airplay (college stations excluded)no music videos, no #1 hits.. just word of mouth that gradually built up a following until they could play 70,000 person festivals. the whole jam band scene is based around live performances..sometimes you suck and sometimes you're on, but it always makes people move. if i could just jam out every show and make it huge doing that, i wouldn't think twice. it's getting harder and harder to do it that way..now you need a good manager, someone who can book you big shows..it's all about who you know that can pull strings and then not choking when you get your chance...bah, i say screw it, just give me some drums to sit behind.

Itll happen, i dont mean to be arrogant and i might sound kinda stupid, but I KNOW, i dont know how i know, why i know, or even when i got this feeling. Thers allways been this little voice in the back of my mind sayin "You gotta do somethin, youre here for SOMETHING" and it just hit me like two years ago when me and my friend were playin together for the first time, we were playin and just looked at each other and we both smiled at the exact same time, had the exact same thought at the same time. And we were like HOLY SHIT this is what we are here for, this is what we are supposed to be doing. Everything has just been falling into place like a jigsaw. Remember the name Sui-Generis were gonna take over the wold HAHAHAHAHAHAHA j/k.

It's one of my primary goals in life.. to make a living doing what I love..playing music. Famous? maybe.. maybe not.. who cares.. as long as I have people listening to my music and enjoying it.

I know I will one day be "famous". What level of fame I cannot say but I have always known that one day I will be in the public spot light (which is weird cause right now I have social anxiety). If you were to make a judgment about where I would end up by looking at my life now, you would probably surmise I would be just be lucky if I don?t self destruct and become a drug victim...I just keep hanging in there.
I will be famous for my art and creative mind

I think that if I would take more time to write I woulkd stand a better chance at being published. And then I can safely take my throne on the high peaks of zion and rule effortlessly the vile hordes of my jealous servants!
