Music has this ability to take us outside of what we are very rapidly if we wanted to,
but I think that people are not in that mindset, that they can actually just be willing to
receive and move outside of what they are.
I need to understand my audiences.
I need to understand where they're at.
And I need to very carefully decide how am I going to move them outside of where they
are just enough that they can experience something new.
What happened to our sense of duty and responsibility?
We all have this duty.
We should feel this duty at least that I feel.
That wait a second, this power beneath our fingers to weave into the very fabric of
existence these beautiful melodies and sounds has the capacity to change the very fabric
of people's beings when they listen.
I better make sure that I understand what I'm doing before I do that.
