I'm listening to "2 Minutes to Midnight" by Iron Maiden right now.... BUT....

SHAMELESS PLUG DISCLAIMER
The following is a shameless plug for music I have myself written. As a rubbish musician you should be aware that listening to music I have created is at your own risk. Any time spent listening to my music cannot be refunded.


... I will be listening to "Searching for some other truth" at http://www.myspace.com/mawkish1983" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; in a bit. I have two version of the song there (one with a piano harmony and one without) and I'm trying to work out which one I should keep and which should be forever purged. I've put it to the public vote but so far only two people have voted. For more info, see the blog on that page.

Four types of letting go:

1) Giving; expecting nothing back in return
2) Throwing things away
3) Contentment; wanting to be here, not wanting to be anywhere else
4) "Teflon Mind"; having a mind which doesn't accumulate things

Ray LaMontagne is so ridiculously talented...

"To reach beyond fear and danger we must sharpen and widen our vision. We have to pierce through the deceptions that lull us into a comfortable complacency, to take a straight look down into the depths of our existence, without turning away uneasily or running after distractions." -- Bhikkhu Bodhi

Many years ago, when I played the guitar, I never quite managed to make tremolos sound even - not even close to even ...
