Do you have an excuse for your feeble lack of applying yourself to your music?
and is it a good one?

Sure I know you try to do a thing or 2. But I want you to remember the time you gave your all to a song from the time you wrote it til the time you uploaded it. What's with your last couple efforts, they seem half-hearted in comparison? Can you possibly remember your state of mind that time you really got into your best song and try to go there again. For old times? Cause you're not dead yet? What kind of songs are you going to pass down for posterity? Surely not that garbage.

If I were you, when I was uploading that last song, I'd have dropped it like a hot tater and made a run for it.

Lacking energy and inspiration.
Or rather, just the energy. I have a lot of shit going on in my life and maybe that is keeping me from being able to actually turn it into inspiration.
I think that the songs come AFTER the shit has died down and I get a chance to look back and reflect a little bit.
Lord knows that I've been trying, though, to get SOMETHING finished. It's been a while, though.

Well it's a seriously long time since I posted a new song but that doesn't mean I haven't been making music. I've been spending the summer on tour drumming with Modou Diouf, our Senegalese Sabar teacher - all over the country in our van and having a gas - played three gigs as well as learning lots of new rhythms.

Plus I had the honour of having one of my songs covered here so there's a new version of Easy flying around by Shoe City Sound.

Hopefully I'll feel inspired to write something soon but don't hold your breath Mr Shrink. I try not to give myself a hard time about it or I get really down.

I've got a band practice on Thursday and running some ideas round with another friend later this week, gigs in the pipeline and various events running round my mind. It's not only about new songs but keeping the music going, flowing and playing!

Hmmmm, I know this is not about my music because I put my heart and soul into every single song I do. What a way to introduce yourself to the IMP community. You throw around your insults as if they apply to everybody here. But the reality is that IMP has some truly great artists and they produce exceptionally good music. Sure, we all have had our share of not so good songs. Every songwriter goes through that. I have hundreds that no one has ever heard because I knew they were not worth hearing. But who the fuck are you to come here and criticize anybody? Earn some respect from the community before you start talking shit. Otherwise, no one will take you seriously.

At this point you are not qualified to critique anybody as you have not presented any of your master pieces for our perusal. Until you do that and prove how great you are as a musician and songwriter. Shrink your ass back to where ever you came from. I usually say "Much Respect" in my posts but you haven't earned that yet.

And What. This is your general statement to Everybody?
How about we all take turns beating you to death with a red velvet cake.
And we got a lot of cake. Room full. In case we wanna eat some.

Seriously, are you an actual Licensed Shrink?

And what, business is slow so you thought you'd come and
offer your basically useless non-utilitarian point of view like a good putz-cup?

Oh, and what a surprise...
I went to your page, you don't even have any songs.

You're like that asshole Kim what's her name in jail
because she can't make any marriage work, so she decides
that in Jesus's name no less (Jesus is love, and bitch, you are Toast)
she's going to deny couples in love a marriage license.

You actually have the nerve to insult people, about something
you can't even do.

Are you an actual Shrinky Dink then?

And what sort of get-up is that in your photo?
With the weird-ass eyes and all.

That's what you wear to masturbate?
Just slap that bad boy on and go to town in the full-length Mama left you?

The one you used to play 'dress up' in when you were little, yes that one.

Listen you pile of poop shoveled into a small brown paper bag,
if you MADE bloody records, you'd have no good conscience
(but assholes like you don't have consciences anyway, you have bank accounts)
talking to people that way. Who the Fuck Are YOU?

An idiot.

A idiot who can't even make a record good bad or infuckingdifferent.

Your brother sat on your face and made you breathe his farts, didn't he.
Admit it. You're among friends you creepy weird bastard.

No, seriously, what is that face get-up?

Devo wouldn't have you? You kept it anyway?

Devo is cool, they wouldn't piss on you.

Really.

Hey, Everyone.

Don't listen to this Arsehole In the Prime of his Fucktardedness...

Make the bloody record you WANT to make.

No one -God gave you the talent, far as I know, He only tells ME
what to fucking write, and half the time I prob'ly get THAT wrong...
I do what I can. Being finite and human.
I've published over 2000 songs, there goes your laziness argument
Shrinky Dink, and some of them actually don't suck. So suck my famous tits.

On second thought, get nowhere near my tits,
I might vomit red velvet cake all over your clearly deserving waccadoo self.

Serve you right it would.

There you are, there's for you, now go make a record,
or go drown yourself in a bucket of your own hork.

Read your own post ten times, and eat a red velvet cake.
Call if you need further consultation you odd bastard.

Who the fuck died and left you as being anyone with a clue?

Seriously. Go beat yourself to death with your own stiff lifeless dirty underwear.

Buh-bye now.

Okay, before I just THOUGHT you were a creepy waccadoo. Now you've removed all possible doubt. Thanks for that, Creepy Waccodoo guy, who should be pronounced
The Donald Duck of Quackdom.

Everyone, save me the trouble,
find out where this asshole lives,
and bring red velvet cake. Nuff said.

Worst thing you could do admitting you're a Licensed Quack.
This means, you're not even good at that. Word associate that, Dipshit.

Nyeah, Nyeah, God gave you absolutely no talent,
and you suck as a shrink too,
so you make posts like this.

Get a girlfriend. Guys like you can afford it. Go get you the finest one money can buy, Shrinky with the Dinky Dick.

Well of course you have an absolute miniscule penis.
Okay big compared to your beanie brain. Small comfort. Oh I made a funny.

Okay,

I'm not engaging you any further.
You might confuse it with a conversation.

You're an absolutely repellent human being, with no useful point whatsoever.

Oh, I may be a bitch, I may be an absolutely repellent human being even,

but I make my point.

But you're a formless blob, making blogs, made of literally 'nothingness'.

So, go look in a mirror, scream a bloody horrible scream because
it's in there to come out we all know it,
and beat yourself to death with a banana.

get a nice green fresh batch. splurge. you deserve it.

Have you ever healed any people?
Or simply giggled as you drove them all to suicide?

You have not a speck of kindness in your heart...

You're the last damned person on earth they ought to ever let be a shrink.

Shrivel, shrink.

You weird-ass little dicked fucktard, you.

I'm American Lesley Jane, and I approved this message.

This is why you don't fuck your own sister, Ladies & Gentleman.

Oh I don't mean anything at all by that Shrinky,

and Mom and Dad/Uncle Bob would readily agree with me, you know they would.

Had you not hacked them to death and buried
them beneath the porch you 'what who me' motherfucker.

Seriously,

Hey FBI,

this is a Live One,

Put the Fuck-You-O-Scope up his ass....

Tell him Lesley sent ya.

Oh don't laugh.

Now they're already looking into it.

Go ahead, laugh then. I don't mind.

~L, over and out....

OH,

Yes...

PS....

Scott,

don't let a piece of shite like this get into your head, Mate.

Creativity is a funny animal...
you wouldn't believe what I have to do sometimes
to get myself to even bother making a record....

Guys like this here, are about the worst thing ever
a songwriter/singer/performer ever has to face....

Well some of them have jobs as Music Critics,
they may actually be worse, they can't do it,
and someone gave them a job talking trash about people who can do it.

Typical for this world, I suppose.

Scott,
I feel I now as Famous American Superheroine Bitch that I am,
offer a counter-balance to his having put you
into a position where you actually feel like you owed this nozzle
a 'fess up'....

You don't owe him a well-timed fart. Though he may have that coming.

And, best thing I can think to tell you is,

Well, Gee, I think it's actually returning to you a question that you yourself
once asked... 'who do you make your music for?'

And sometimes, it's lots of people, even if you think it's just you....

And the thing with that is, you can be pulled this way and that,
then you're not of one mind...

and at that point, you don't even realize you're answering a complete
wanker when he comes along with a shitstain of a question like that.

Really.
Shut up. Go make a record.
Let's see what you can do.

Because if you're presently qualified to comment on anyone's music,
well then I'm qualified to write you a prescription.

1200 Mgs of Thorazine. Stat.

Scott,
there is one person and one person only,
who you answer to, and that's you.

And if you're okay with you, to hell what anybody else says about it.

Glad we had this chat. We talk so seldom these days you Lady Killer.

Well, okay...

I appreciate what of your candor this is....

You do a lot then don't you. I mean, you run this site.
That's actually as excuses go, a fantastic one.
"Hey cut me some slack, I ain't making records.... 'cause I'm helping
the whole world hear all of yours!"

Shuts me right up, I don't know about everybody else.

Ever smoke a doobie and just get a song going through your head
and that's it, you disappear into the studio for hours? Or is that just me?

I'll have a word with the fake shrink here for a minute.
Right now, I chose first to talk to a real person.

Quite a lovely site you have here, I do like the energy.

And some very nice people...

Mental note, go look at Stoneman's page....

A hard man is good to find.

Focus, Lesley.

Yeah, no actually writer's block we do not throw on the neurosis list....

The thing Noah Spaceship mentioned, well that's a contender.

Anyway....

You know, the bottom line for me in regards to making records,
is, I love makin' 'em.

I do. And when I'm lucky enough to be blessed with a song idea,
I leap on it like a wild thing that leaps on things.

You do not frankly seem, oh, at all upset about a lack of output,
so, I'm going then to say to you now,
if you don't give a fuck, well really, who else is going to ride you about it?

It's a perfectly legitimate stance to just admit,
"look, I kinda don't give a crap by now, if I'm in the mood I'll do it, if not, screw it"..

I have days like that. Days when I wonder if I'll ever make a record again.
They're usually days when the pot ran out.

What. It helps. Little goes a long way.
Not that I can't do it without it, I have. Many times.

Certainly written some of my best 'pissed off songs' that way. Hands down.

Perhaps you set yourself up too high a personal expectation.

Well, you've billed yourself as The Future Of Rock.

Now, speaking as one who literally IS, The Future Of Rock,
I was happy to share this enviable title with you,

but it seems you're perhaps feeling a bit put upon by having
to live up to the banner you yourself slapped up.

Perhaps an amendment...?
The Future Of Rock when and if I'm in the mood, Lesley Fuck Off...

Well!

Sorry, I read minds... I'll try not to do that so much.

(I lied, but I'll still say that anyway... : )

It is a bit 'round the corner and back again,

to on the one hand not give a fuck, again perfectly legitimate,
I used to think I'd one day save the world, and now? Wait for it....

Wait for it....

YES!

I Officially Don't Give A Fuck. It's notable.

God can just go ahead and blow up the Sun because I'm done
having a headache over you lot.

But see, I'm okay with that...

I'll go only this far....

IN the Event That I Can Save The World, oh okay, Maybe. MAYBE!

But not if you all piss me off. To hell with you then.

And what are the odds, really. Duh.

And I'm okay with all that.

As for the Elephant in the room in various guises yelling at himself
for not being productive, then admitting it, like....

Noah, you must know the guy, and well...

You pegged, what I figured out some time last night,
"Hey wait a minute!"

Some smart folks here.

You too Timey Wimey Guy,
and look,

you have no one to impress but you.

And clearly, you have enough going on,
what with this whole site, this is a pretty cool site,
and you're the big honcho who runs the little darlin'...

So, what does it matter, if it does not bother you,
what your rate of frequency of record releases are?

Don't ---please don't, it's not fair to yourself--- feel like you have
to keep up with my output...

Because that's just bananas. Nobody can do that.
I can't keep up with me.

I still have two records to release, this morning!

Okay now I'm off to yell at the fake shrink.

Briefly. Don't wanna encourage the numbnuts.

Much Love,
Your Friend,

~Lesley Jane

Be good, and if you can't be good be accurate.

You are Bartholomew of the Many Hats, me thinks.

And this, constitutes a higher 'loon' degree than I studied for,
Congrats you fat cat.

Sheeit, I save the world everyday by not giving a fuck and leading by example.
It's what you don't give a fuck about that is important.

I know you want to touch me. (Some harder than others)

I would have to say you're not all that familiar with shrinking musicians. American Lesley Jane points out that you don't play music yourself. That's the thing. If you understood us better you'd see the obvious .... musicians are neurotic at the other end of the spectrum. Most of us are relentlessly over analytical of our own work and listen to it ad nauseum before ever letting go public.

looking forward to more IMP shrunk queries and challenges to us, that is he or whatever is so brave to tread here again
What will be the IMP psychs next attempt at trying to be so sage and wise, doesn't seem to work around these parts, does it. some here gave you a boot full. should be interesting. wonder how his practice is really going, and if his 8 years of schooling actually helps people.

I've been known to help people but there was also this actress who jumped off the roof of a building.

I'm afraid what we have here is a number of complacent artists. But writing a song a day will keep the doctor away. For you ALJ, it might take 3 or 4. :D

I noticed Shrink that he seems to be avoiding your word association test. That's the elephant in the room as far as I'm concerned. or is it this?

@ IMP SHRINK

you said
" I'm afraid what we have here is a number of complacent artists. But writing a song a day will keep the doctor away."

are you kidding Imp da shrink wanna be, churn out Sh*t just for the sake of writing a song. that is weak dude. any one who attempts that aint going to ever write a decent song. Songcrafting is an artform, and trying to slice it out like chopping bologna is half ass and stupid and produces inane unmeaningful junk, like choke and puke crap from Mcdonalds.

The more you do it, the better you get at it. Besides the goal is to have 100 songs to choose from for your 11 cut CD or something like that.

Sure I concur, to a point IMP Shrink. but what works for some may not be something that works for others. we all work in different ways, we are wired differently. So while I agree the more you do, the better you get is a worthwhile aspiration and possible destination to success for those that grind it out, for some, I am sure,they will have a different approach and idea on that suggestion you pitched.

But to just record something for the sake of getting it out there, thats vanity, and rather does injustice to ones credibility, like some tunes should never see the light of day, and I have seen many of those here at IMP and other music sites, and might add, i should delete some of my own frail attempts that lie dormant, but then again, I have found many a gem that have been orphans until i discovered them for my stations, so then again, you never know, one mans JUNK is another mans treasure. : )

Ah, I didn't mean upload a song a day, but rather, write one. But I agree with much of your point.

Write one a day, aint gonna happen. not for me, maybe others feel compelled or motivated to do so, I dont. my plate is full of other more pressing matters at this time. although I do on occasion make time and do some writing, but for me, as an instru"mentalist" first and a songcrafter second. I go for writing or scoring out a song for instruments
different thing all together

Yes Chandra, it is getting more serious as we seem to have squashed the IMP SHRINK into being more considerate and pleasant in his responses, i prefer the other IMP dude with attitude, must be his wife subbing in. what ever that means

I see you have Type A failure fatigue.

that's ok, I work with your type all the time.

I can help you re acquire your patient base and be back in business.
I will need a cash deposit to further these sessions, however.
