I have to admit that I was more than a tad disappointed that your entry didn't bring you to the finals. Of course, it's all subjective, and there's no accounting for taste, but your entry was conspicuously wonderful. (Here's where I get a bit petty, so apologies in advance.) AND, your song -- Guitarfire -- was conspicuously MORE wonderful, I thought, than the entries of most of those who DID make it into the finals.
Maybe next year! |

Location: chicago | sometimes it takes just a little more than talking about doing it,and then just doing it.By that I mean in '92 I submitted a song I wrote called Bozos waltz to a gtr player sound page competition, not sure if it was any good, but I new it was at least as interesting as the guy that won the previous year,so with that I got an honorable mention with 700 entries from around the world,its not about competition or ego even its just to see if theres justification in what I spend so much time involved in.... something that is a driving passion that Is only motivated by my love for the craft.Jeff |
