In a word, everything.
To be able to wake up every morning and continue to create.
For everyone to love and exhibit empathy for everyone else because we're all in this together and for all to go vegan. Peace and Light to all.
There's just too many.
Too many to name.
For better or worse, mostly everything.
This is who I am and how I percieve the world, my surroundings and my mind.
It's been a while since but, there really is nothing like it.
What needs to change is that the industry as a whole needs to come down off it's pedestal and treat all artists and musicians as creative equals. Music and all art forms should not be treated simply as a commodity.
I just started here but so far so good.
What frustrates me most is the business side of it all.
Of course! Mostly in the realm of plugging, sharing and listening as well as purchasing albums and works.
Hard work and constant effort.
