there was a time in middle school when someone told me my singing sucked and i wasn't offended at all
i was like "ah ok" and i stopped singing for years because of that one comment
@julilyinfinite It's a shame how the most creative kids will just get talked out of something big sometimes. Like, I'll spare you the story but I'm 34 and still not playing drums, gotta fix that lol
@bobbyd0g Better late than never, I think it would be great if you can play the drums.
I only stopped back then not because the comment hurt but more so like, "Ah... maybe this isn't my thing then. I'll spare your ears" since at the time I wasn't really feeling it. To this day I still have a love/hate relationship with music but at least my vocals have improved somewhat.
@julilyinfinite Is it a love/hate relationship with the concept, the process, or the results? I hope that if making music is something you want to fully enjoy, that the path further unfolds before you. I had the honor and privilege of coaching a few friends out of "tone deafness" and both their output and enjoyment improved dramatically with only minor adjustments in a supportive social environment. All had professed it was impossible and they were just bad singers!
@julilyinfinite [If only some coaching would improve my email communication habits!]
@bobbyd0g It's ok! No worries, take your time.
