Entered the land of ZEN


My next encounter with my mentor had me sitting out in the backyard. I should say the back 'nature valley' as he has this awesome creek trickling through this forested valley area complete with rocks! Well, I sat down on a little bench and became entranced by the peaceful trickle of the babbling brook. This helped me to get in the 'mood' for letting music flow.


Sitting in the forest was very peaceful and playing my guitar made it so much better. It helped me to get my musical ideas flowing like the river. But after about 45 minutes of this, I returned to his loft house and started laying out what I had done. It wasn't anything solid, just something I had put together that sounded pretty good.
