Lately, I'm spending more and more time working with non-rock musicians and leaving the mainstream - almost dissolving into another world, musically.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've been a musician my whole life. I'm really enjoying making music again.
Professionally, I want to keep playing music; I can't escape that.
I want a long career in music, so you've gotta keep trying things out; it's gotta get progressively better.
I'm in a band, and we play music. And that's sort of my way of still being a rock star.
I have to admit I've found myself doing the same things that a lot of other rock stars do or are forced to do. Which is not being able to respond to mail, not being able to keep up on current music, and I'm pretty much locked away a lot. The outside world is pretty foreign to me.
I'm quite an eclectic musician.
I think my music has always been a mixture, depending on whom I'm working with - what band, what musicians, what producer.
I really haven't strayed too far, musically, from my roots.
I feel it's my job to continue being a student of music if I want to continue being an artist and a producer of other artists. You have to keep filling your mind with other music. You have to be ahead of the curve.
Like most musicians, I'm good at becoming immersed in the music that I am currently working on. We seldom lift up our heads to contemplate even the music we will be doing in the future, let alone what we've done in the past.
