I was wondering how you feel about being jaded. By pursing music as a possible career, I have been lied to, underpaid, malnourished, strung out, stepped on, passed over, and the like. There have been so many broken promises and broken hearts in the past six years that I used to wonder if I would even play drums anymore.
I have become jaded, to put it simply.
My guard is always up when it comes to new band members, and I'm very slow to make a judgement call about anything or anyone until the reasons and motives become clear.
Is this a bad thing? You tell me.
For me it was a bad thing for a while, but when I rediscovered the "fun" aspect of drums, that helped out alot. It keeps me playing and writing new music. However I'm still jaded. Still not quick to trust, and not quick to get excited about anything musically related. In my mind, it's a slow process of steps and I'm just trying to pick the best next step.
So is being jaded a bad thing? Could it help? Does it hurt?
