Ya just gotta laugh

Hey hey!

I'm always going on and on about the musical journey, and what a trip it is. I know for a fact that each and every one of you reading this post has a tale to tell of your own travels as well, so I hope this ties in.

My quest for world domination has been entertaining. But sometimes, after reading a bunch of articles about excellence at guitar, and teaching modes for months on end, I forget about the joy of playing music. The pursuit of excellence can sometimes leave one breathless, unable to slowly inhale the fragrant air of....aw whatever, Joe, we can forget that we're rock musicians sometimes!

And I would imagine that would be true of any discipline, or walk of life. Hey all you train engineers - when's the last time you realized you were in charge of a gazillion tons of metal? (And also, train engineers, I want to co-pilot a train some day, so hit me up for some free lessons or something!)

One of my favorite guitarists also has a great sense of humor. Paul Gilber, of Racer X and Mr. Big fame, has one of the funniest sites I've been to in a long time. (Be sure to check out the photoshop section, and take the bass player quiz.)

Check it out, and rejoice in rock. That's why we're in this! Hey...Ya just gotta laugh!

Rock on!
