K

I think Kramer was just plain wrong and stupid.

He better by a kevlar suit if you know what I mean.

I'm a White Cracker and I found it offensive.

I am using "audacity" freeware, It records multi tracks but each time you mix and render it garbles things up... I am happy if you can just understand the lyrics? Past attempts at vocals I did couldn't even be understood. Hrmm... what do you mean exactly by garbled up? Maybe its some sett...

what software are you using? if it can't multitrack im sure you can probably download a copy or demo of some software that will let you mulitrack. I think not having the ability to do so is probably holding you back somewhat. As i would be using that condensor on both the voice and guitar on separa...

Looks

Dude if you are doing what you like, evn if it's just singing in the shower, have fun and enjoy it. That's what it's all about anyway isn't it.

I don't think I'll see my pic on Billboard magazine someday or ever write a hit record... I'm just having my fun.

I remember seeing some old Meatloaf videos and man was he getting a workout.

Unfortunately I think the music business is a lot more about looks and glitter these days than it is talent and art.

I think it has a lot to do with genes.

Some people can't all be slim.. just like some people have blue eyes, and some are born drunks. You are what you are.... if you want to change and nature has other plans. Your tough luck.
