THIS blog WILL COMMENT ON LIVE ROCK PERFORMANCE. THE FIRST HUNDRED POSTS ; MY HONEST OPINION AS LIVE ROCK CRITIC. I have written lately of my own Live Rock journey and how it did end up wrecked on the rocks again and again. Still it is an incredible improvement to have recovered from virtual paralysis a number of times and be able to write and compose and play instruments and most of all to have been able to dance on stage and perfrorm on Harmonica with LIVE ROCK BANDS.

CRINGE ME CRINGE ME: DIM MY LIGHTS
I JUST RECALLED WHAT SHUTS DOWN THE EXUBERANCE ENERGY AND CONFIDENCE OF THE LIVE ROCK PERFORMER.
THE CREATION OF WORRY, AND THE FEELING OF BEING WATCHED AND PROBED TO EXPOSE SOME DEFECT AND HAVING ONE'S MOTIVATION AND ONE'S DEDICATION AND PROFICIENCY AND EVEN ONE'S VERACITY AND SANITY QUESTIONED SAPS THE ENERGY AND BRAVADO OF THE LIVE ROCK PERFORMER.
WHEN I WAS AT MY PEAK IN CONFIDENCE AND IN PROFICIENCY THE ASSOCIATED CHEER AND ENERGY WAS MIS-CHARACTERIZED AS SOME LACK OF CONTROL OR LACK OF DECORUM OR LACK OF A REALISTIC OUTLOOK.
THEN THE FAMILY FELT ENTITLED TO STEAL FROM ME TO FORCE ME TO LABOR AT THEIR ONEROUS TASKS AND THEN OUTRAGED, THE FAMILY OF NARCISSISTS PHYSICALLY ATTACKED ME AND THEY DREW THE ATTENTION OF THE POLICE TO ME AND MY EX-WIFE AND HER LAWYER TRIED TO HAVE POLICE SEIZE MY GOODS AND MY MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AND MY HOUSE AND STUDIO. THE DEFAMATION SPREAD AND OTHER PERSONS MADE THINGS UP ABOUT ME AND SENT DOGCATCHERS AND SHERIFFS AND BY-LAW OFFICERS OUT TO MY HOUSE AND STUDIO .......
CAN YOU BELIEVE I WAS CRINGING?
Postscript from Facebook:
IT TAKES A LOT OF PRACTICE AND LIVE PERFORMANCE TO GET INTO THE ENERGETIC CONFIDENT EXUBERANT STATE OF MIND THAT IS NECESSARY TO GET UP IN FRONT OF AN AUDIENCE AND PLAY.
I HAVE HAD TO WORK MY WAY UP TO THAT GLORIOUS STATE FROM LAYING THERE UNABLE TO MOVE TO DANCE AND WAIL WITH MY HARMONICAS.
IT COULD TAKE ONLY A SINGLE BAD EXPERIENCE TO MAKE ME CRINGE AND TO BE UNABLE TO PERFORM OR EVEN TO LEAVE THE HOUSE DUE TO A RELAPSE INTO SHELL SHOCK OR TONIC IMMOBILITY.

BLACK STAR WHITE STAR
BLACK STAR WAS TOUTED AS BROOKLYN'S FINEST RAP.
I FOUND THEIR TWO PERFORMANCES ON SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE TO BE MUCH THE SAME TRADITIONAL HAND WAVING AND WALKING ABOUT WHILE REPEATING AND REPEATING. IT WAS SO BORING.
WHITE STAR TAYLOR SWIFT'S POTENTIAL LIVE PERFORMANCE IS A CASH GRAB BY TICKET SELLERS AND RESELLERS IS WHAT HER FANS POST.
TAYLOR HAS SOME SLICK VIDEOS. IS SHE REALLY AS SLIM AS SHE IS PORTRAYED TO BE IN HER VIDEOS?
I NEVER LIKED SWIFT'S SCREECHY VOCALS. I REALLY LIKED GRACE SLICK, JANICE JOPLIN, SHERYL CROW AND AMY WINEHOUSE. I HAVE EMULATED THEIR VOCAL RIFFS. I DID A VERY LITTLE BIT OF KARAOKE: WHITE RABBIT, SUMMERTIME AND ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND LOUISE DID A DYNAMITE WHITE ROOM.
