you're not quitting. if you ever loved it, you'll want to
get back to it one day. and if it turns out i'm wrong, i'll
say now that you absolutely shouldn't quit. it's a
mistake.

if you're frustrated, take a break for a while. you'll
almost definitely find that as time goes on, you'll want to
get back into it.

and of course in the "i quit" thread is one of your best
tracks ever. it's really exceptional and it would be a huge
loss to not keep doing stuff like this. :(

I just honestly don't have the will or anymore really. I
can't concentrate on anything long enough and it all sounds
the same to me. It's never good enough.

if you want to.

if you're not having fun making music, by all means, quit.

We'll see what happens. The last thing i really need is to
fail somewhere where i wouldn't succeed.

"by all means" makes it sound like I'm saying "do it! do it!
QUIT!".

I just meant if you're not having fun, that's a good reason
to stop. :)

as usual, this track is excellent. love the guitars and the
old textures, with the drum sounds that sound like rickety
creakings in a haunted house. you always had a way with
atmosphere. loving the scratch-like sounds i'm hearing
also.

if you quit music, don't worry. if your heart was ever truly
in it, you will be back. the fact that you are posting such
a message, letting us know that you're quitting, shows a
resistance to quitting that you are having, because you
obviously don't want to forget all about your music, because
you want others to remember.

god, that was glib. i must be rambling.

Right. I'm not saying that like "Get a fucking job" but, you
know, in my experience having a job, even jobs that made me
want to slit my fucking wrists, gives you something to work
against. My worst times were at home, unemployed, drinking
"fortified wine" and going crazy, I mean, this is more me
than you... well it's different if you're incapacitated,
though I was signed off for a while as well after going
mental, but ummmmm.... I want you to be happy Stinky, try
not to be dramatic, rise above it, be bold, be daring, but
above all, be sexy.

Pardon me if i have been dramatic. I had kind of reached the
same conclusion. I need to work very hard at getting through
this and i want to study and really learn everything. Then i
am going to leave this cessit of country and try my luck
somewhere elese. I feel so hemmed in and impotent. I really
need to grab life by the ears and spunk in it's mouth, there
is nothing sexier to me than being control.

Thankyou for the very kind words.

That's good, 99% of people who make music now only do so
from memetic illness. Read non-fiction instead.

I quit music once, too, and I stayed quit. I still have my
guitarr and all the gearr. Sometimes I pick it up, but now
my ability to play has deterriorrated so much I just tend
not to botherr. Oh well, I'm rregrretful about the whole
thing though.

one.
