I surf constantly these days. I spend more time surfing and learning than I do making music. I would have never thought I’d become so excited about learning new stuff that I slacked off on creating new music. And the best part is, I’m totally Ok with this new path. To me it’s an essential part of immersing myself in my new occupation/career path. I’m going to do a video soon on the concept of completely surrounding yourself with what you want to be involved in. Need a good title.

These are blogs that I read, to keep myself informed of what is developing in the music biz. Maybe, they’ll interest you too. Be careful tho, you could end up swimming in new knowledge for years!

There are hundreds of creative forums out there in internet land. Anybody can join them. Becoming part of any of these communities will give you tons of connections and hope. Here are the Forums that I read and contribute to daily:

And I just found this really cool thing on Muse’s Muse. You see – this is why I surf. I just realized, the Sue and Steve show needs some kind of meditation page like this on our web blog too! Maybe ours could be simpler.

And IMHO, the granddaddy of all websites to me is YouTube.
