I was a bit put off by that hosts description(s) of what he offers. They are full of ego and pomp, but the circumstance is vapid. He does not create anything, just makes schmarmy remarks about other peoples work and focuses usually on the superficial aspects. Sure Curt was/is a fabulous producer but there is lack of insight on the author's p.o.v. to demean something that was not in his hands to construct or destruct. It's like the freepress gone trash-o-la. I then found your comment at the bottom and was shocked he did not delete it. <br />Now I got to link here and am happy in the long term that guy wrote those things, it tipped me to your insightful reflections of the music/entertainment industry. heartfelt! Thanks for sharing your memories and how they affected your path. I will be reading more to get more history lessons! Too many people have gone the route of selfdestruction that I love that you describe, and rarely do any pull themselves up. You speak candid about it being your lack of guidance. If only others can just admit that, and forget about the hyper-mirror reflection. On a side note, that's cool you worked with Mike Deasy! I was chatting with him a few weeks ago, and he's doing well. peace from vancouver islandfreQazoidiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608531474030069269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6026171904413475346.post-22900395702444563382008-07-17T00:23:00.000-07:002008-07-17T00:23:00.000-07:00Anonymous, I just found your comment and consider ...Anonymous, I just found your comment and consider speaking to you as important as anything I could possibly be doing. I want you to know from me personally that I found sobriety in the darkest of all moments. Nothing worked and I was sure I would die loaded and that was ok with me. What I didn't know was that my misery was the path to a certain kind of freedom, not wealth and "hey every things fine" but a freedom from slavery to the daily drug and alcohol beast. I may not sound like a happy guy, but I am free to choose how happy or unhappy I want to be and that was something I lost in drugs and alcohol. Please feel free to contact me here or on my myspace sites which you can get to by clicking on the music1 or 2 links at the top of these posts, we can talk by email.

I am hoping to find an answer for myself through reading about your struggles. There are others here who obviously feel the same.
