being dragged by others dream which in reality isn't yours, is far from dancing the dance of your heart. . .just proceed with what you believe in while others belief is none of your business it's theirs anyway, so don't let them stop you from from believing in your self . . . .nice post I enjoyed reading them thanks
If you want it bad enough you will have it. You only have one life to live, so live it without regret.
I feel entrapped by an e-mail come-on that fails to deliver what it offers. However, once you arrive at FanBox.com, it doesn't take long to see that you're looking at a carefully designed attempt to attract subscribers. There is no individual, freelance blogger whose only concern is to communicate. There is no reference to artistic, literary, or social values. It's all about money.
I'm doubly pissed off because I got entrapped by FanBox on FaceBook, too. (Hey, I just got the parallel: FB for both operations.) I followd the enticements and by the time I realized that there was a fixed set of processes that I was supposed to follow, it was too late to back out politely.
I'll bet anything that my Comment won't be displayed like the two shown just above the content-entry box, but I don't much care.

Well, music is filled with ballads and just like in matters of the heart, you don't need to fight to be loved but your love is worth fighting for!
Just a quick thought on the subject as far as strangers.Who would you think normally makes most of the audience all around the whole music scene ?
