I'm also in a few bands too. Some of us are just greedy for good creativity perhaps?
Maybe you'd be up for collaborating on a track over the internet or something? Would be very cool. I've been able to get in touch (and hopefully arranging some sort of collaboration) with another lady who is doing SADFAY in 2011 also!! Kinda like a Dave Gorman meeting all the other Dave Gormans thing...
well have a listen and let me know sure: http://sadfay.bandcamp.com
Cheers! :)

maybe i had more of an impression than i thought…
when the year started, i imagined the project bringing me fame and fortune (somewhat); people finally getting to see how hard i work at my ‘craft’ coupled with adoration and respect. the outcome has been a bit different than that.
it’s been about 13 weeks since i’ve been finished, and i can’t write a song. i’m tapped. i’ve tried, and every time i pick up the guitar i just feel stupid, like i’m punching in a dream (not connecting). the project was mind-numbing at times, and people i meet still seem to be blown away by the idea of it, although i’m not sure how successful the project really was. it may sound pessimistic, but i feel as though i’m better off playing bass in bands, it allows me to travel and play shows without all that existential self-searching and borderline comedic outpouring of emotion. i really put myself out there, and i feel somewhat cheated that i really didn’t get anything out of it, other than a pain in the ass.
maybe i’m just not that good; the nagging doubt and self-loathing. people asked me if i was going to make a post to sum up my ‘accomplishment’, and i guess this is it. all the pain and joy and vomit and cum of one year, here for everyone to see. embarrassing.
in conclusion, the project was a failure, but i did complete it, and having gained nothing, i’m probably not going to write any more songs for quite some time (for male nurse). i just can’t push past mediocrity. thank you for listening. i hope your experience is, at least, more enriching.
