We could perhaps have Polly's opinion on this topic? she's both sides of the story... the girl and the drummer, do you have any conflicts or querells with the duo-personality thing Polly?
...him replying in a straightforward manner ... "Dang and blast, Enid, I just can't get that blessed snare drum sounding right."
...Just talk, dammit! If you can't confide in your partner about your tuning woes then she's not The One. Simple...
I agree Polly, with the danger of her replying "is that all what's bothering you? You're a sad soul"...
Now if Nadal looses in the fifth set against Jokovitch in the Australian Open's final, there will be some long faces around the house, but at least I will know why... )
that is hilarious I love that... the thing is, I always say is that 'many" not "all" modern women don't have hobbies or interests of their own, and they obbsess about what their man is doing.
In my experience, if I'm obsessing over something music or drum related and fess up to it in that kind of a situation (before it becomes a 'situation'), it doesn't get me off the hook, so I will often compartmentalize and hide my annoying little obsessions and hope to not get called out on them. It's almost automatic.
Thanks, Polly!Mike, you're a musician so you're allowed to have neurotic little obsessions. Any person who takes up with a muso and doesn't expect oddball stuff isn't paying attention!
Thanks, Polly!
Most musos I've known have tended to be a little mad...
That's very flattering, thanks Polly )
Well, to be honest, your username gives the game away.
