Continued Musical Education

Insanity at work and Planning-ness has kept me from playing music as much as I'd like, but I think it'd be fun to be able to look back on what I've learned in my weekly adventures. Let the collecting begin:

Oh No Oh My - Walking into You (Guitar)

Zwan - Honestly (Guitar)

Zwan - El Sol (Guitar)

Radiohead - Like Spinning Plates (Keys)

The Swell Season - When Your Mind's Made Up (Keys -- a work in progress!)

And on top of it, I've started playing around with writing my own music, which I'm really enjoying. I've written one complete song on piano for which I can't settle on a title, but I'm sure something will shake out at some point. I actually would love to add some additional instrumentation on top of it, but I'm anxious at the idea of playing it for anyone. I've seen how things can go sideways with differing opinions, and when it's your own creation being discussed...man, it's just going to take a while to get used to the idea and actually give it a go.

Getting ready to embrace failure.

Completion

The funny thing about writing about something that's happening to you is that you can't finish it until what's happening is resolved.
