I think this is why I tend not to play other people's material.  Thanks for sharing. <em>Sepia's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sepiaband/feed/~3/242455673/' rel="nofollow">St. Paddy’s Day Show at the Brass Monkey</a></em> My guitar is part of me as well…I know this is going to sound cliché but…my guitar is an extension that allows me to convey how I am feeling at any given moment (without needing to speak).

I've sat down at my keyboard many times, but I can only play...not write. I'm definitely missing the emotional connection with my keyboard like you have with your guitar! That's what makes a musician, I believe. I just play. It's way more than that for you!  <em>Jessica The Rock Chick's last blog post..<a href='http://lifeisrantastic.blogspot.com/2008/02/name-game.html' rel="nofollow">The Name Game</a></em> I think being able to write music is incredible and truly, is a gift.
