Oh Dear, Didn’t Stick To Your 2 Drink Limit Last Night?
Had six. Anything to stop the memories.
I see. You've had to live a hard life, and he's too much of an idealist to understand that bits don't grow on trees. This explains a lot, really.
Zach, try to not to pry too hard, okay?
And what was the issue with his daughter? Was she equally obnoxious to you?

I don’t have anything against her. But if I get involved with her life, then Type’s going to get involved in mine.
More importantly, she doesn’t need me. There’s nothing I can do to help her. Her parents were murdered in front of her; she needs a trained foal psychologist before she develops a mental condition.
Must all artists suffer for their work?
AnonymousApparently…
I’m hungover right now. The monitor is so bright it hurts and the sound of my own lyre reverberates in my head so hard it makes me want to puke…
Earlier today I was trying to figure out what the problem was between you and Typewriter. I've gotten his side of the story. According to him, you disagreed with his opinions (which he admitted were flawed at the time) and insulted his daughter who idolized you simply because she was related to him. This led to him deciding that he'd kill you if he ever caught you near his home. I talked him out of this. He now wants a second chance.
Now that I have his side of the story, what's yours?

He threatened me, my friend. He’s got this superior bullcrap attitude. Noble morality spewing garbage. Ponies like him! They were the ones I had to look out for when I was stealing bread or apples just to eat!
But he choose to be mister save-the-day warrior! Became rich as hay too! Could trot through life without a care in Equestria! I didn’t want that! I actively avoided it as best I could! Didn’t help. Wasn’t enough. Barely made it out at all, and far from well.
And where am I?! For all the running and beatings and stabbings and stealing to survive and… Oh God… That poor girl… She… She begged… and I couldn’t do anything…
…
…
I’m sure you’re trying to help. But this isn’t something a motivational speech is going to solve. I don’t have a studio backing me up. And for all the help I’ve been getting, I can’t afford to pay anypony because I’m not getting any money.

If You’re Really That Worried About Your Career I Could Always Use Some Live Music When I’m Performing With The GildaBolts. We Don’t Perform That Often But I’d Pay you Good And You’d Get To Play A Big Crowd.
I appreciate it Gilda, but that’s not stable. That’s whenever you get a job. If I don’t have some steady income… I’m a month behind on my half of the cost of living with Bon-Bon…
And why won’t this stupid bottle open?!
Great… Now I dented the edge of my computer desk. Computer desk that doesn’t even belong to me! I swear to God…
I Still Don’t Think It Was That Bad. You’re Way Too Hard On Yourself Dude.
Ponies don’t pay to listen to not bad…
… I just want a stable career…
I just want…. another f-… freakin’ drink!
It Wasn’t That Bad! You Shouldn’t Be So Hard On Yourself, It’s All About The Confidence!
It’s okay. A bit poor compared to your other stuff, but otherwise just fine.
Ya thank so?
Try listening to the original and saying that with a straight face…
I’m getting a da-… darn drink….
Upload It! This Griffon Demands It.
Audible sigh…-
Fine. It’s not like I have anything else to upload.
I rage deleted the rhythm bass, so there’s some gaps with no sound.
Three hours and this thirty second, incomplete garbage is all I could come up with…
Alright, well, that was a miserable failure.
If I did compose something, the only way it would work is to be so simplistic as to defeat the purpose of trying! It couldn’t even be taken seriously!
…
I could get the lead guitar’s part, but everything else just came out like crud… And that’s even if I could even get close to sounding like the original…
Well, it was a… way… to spend a few hours, I guess. But I’d be embarrassed to even upload what I got… I swear a foal could do better…
FOR EVERY REBLOG , ILL DONATE A DOLLAR TO AN CHARITY THAT SUPPORTS THE UK RIOTS.

Not sure why you’d want to support a riot. Seems to me that you’d want to stop it!
Joking aside, good cause. Not sure if whoever started it has a thousand bits sitting around, though.
Sometimes it’s hard just sitting here learning music… For a number of reasons, but one in particular has dragged itself to the surface here recently.
I like listening to music, but I can’t listen to music and practice at the same time. I’ve been feeling pretty unmotivated lately, because I just…
Have you ever tried writing music? I thought my calling was playing music for like 16 years until I took music theory in school. Then I realized how annoying playing was and now I’m going to college for composition!
Hmm… Now there’s a thought. I certainly can’t afford college right now. But I did pick up my lyre and I’m trying to work through the notes on an old favorite of mine and actually write the sheet music for it myself (I could never find its sheet music anywhere). If I can learn how to do that, I might know enough about note placement to actually compose something myself.
Only been at it a few minutes, but it actually sounds sort of accurate. Sort of.
I was just saying… Yeah, i suck at words.
When i had trouble practicing a new piece, i would call one of my bandmates and practice it with him. If it didn’t work, we would just play something else to relieve stress. Sometimes, i would just call Jen and she would just listen to me practice.
It helped.
But we are from different backgrounds and i can sort of see how this may not be good advice… I’m sorry… i’m sticking my foot in my mouth, aren’t i?
No! You’re fine! I understand where you’re coming from. And if I was any good, I could do something like that. But it takes me so long to learn a piece. No one has the kind of patience it would take to hang out with me. Not for five hours of me slowly reading each note, line by line, and slowly memorizing it.
And I wouldn’t really want them to.

If You’re Feeling Burnt Out A Rest Will Be Good For You. Just Relax No One Expects You To Upload A New Piece Every Day. It’ll Just Make It All The More Special When You Do Record A New One. Don’t Feel Bad About This, You Deserve A Break.
Thanks Gilda. And thanks for all the guitar help you’ve given me!

Have you tried playing with someone when you feel like this?
It’s not like I can just jam. I can only play by the book.
Unless you mean, like X-Colt. I don’t really have anything to play right now. I sold Call of Cutie: Modern Warmare 2 when I had to cancel my X-Colt Live account.
Oh no! Text!

I like listening to music, but I can’t listen to music and practice at the same time. I’ve been feeling pretty unmotivated lately, because I just want to sit here and listen to music. It’s like a double-edged knife. I like music and I like playing music, so it’s my career. But I can’t just sit and listen to music, because I have to keep practicing.
I hate how things are right now. I’ll set aside some time to listen to some music, you know, to try and find something new. But then I’ll finding myself just sitting here with a grimace on my face, just waiting a few seconds or a minute to see if something happens and then just going to the next track! I’ve even skipped around through tracks to see if there’s anything that immediately grabs me, and if not just dumping it!
That’s not how you listen to music! And I hate that all I’m looking for are gems, when not every piece is supposed to be!
So, I’ve been kinda down and unmotivated today. Haven’t done anything. Originally I was going to blame being sore on it, but that’d be a lie.
Didn’t have anything to upload yesterday, won’t have anything tonight, almost positive I won’t have anything tomorrow. And probably not the day after either.
Sorry.
