I don’t guess karma was ill; I don’t presume there was behind the mind disdain either. We got along fine for what it’s worth, which is a lot if you went to this event to be, “exorcized”. I mean that comically & seriously. It takes more than an idea and vision to move into reality with your goals. While I have known this all my life, I couldn’t understand how some others, didn’t.

I still call that stupidity; because some of these individuals seemed to be very well articulated. Did they have the catalogue (music) to empower the words shared…I don’t know…..and to some degree, I don’t care. We were there to get away from what most of us would call, “tasting the grime”. Bob is more or less, a bubbly individual with a family that is enjoyably quirky.

Does this meeting change the nature of my perspective on him or those that I deem the ‘how-to’ jockeys? No. But I’ve never decried any of them as ‘not hard working’ or ‘ethically incorrect’. Anyone who is going to want to be an authority on something, I shall challenge. Sometimes until they are sickened but mostly, for fun and for reflective; transition.

Thank you Bob (Baker) for being embracing, accepting, & just closed enough to allow the Hero/Villain aesthetic to allow us the greeting.

First off, meeting Derek was important for me. Having been both a critic & advocate of his ideas in the past, I was destined for that moment when I’d say, “by the way, I’m…” — He is very much the introvert he explains himself as and, that’s excellent. I’m very similar to him in those respects but probably not at all alike in many others.

In the end, Derek (Sivers) is not the stereotypical enterpriser that he thinks he might be. He comes across as a mix between Sun Tzu & the public Steve Jobs. Very adaptable, very improvisational, and very peculiar; you have to be meticulously intense to exist in today’s business & entertainment environment and well, I’m happy that we have this in common.

I feel that not knowing a few small items about him may have taken him aback, but I don’t get to read online as much as I’d like to. So I asked him some simple items about ever getting into music again etc. and, he was unexpectedly gracious to answer. I figured since he was like myself with some small talk items he’d reply, “good God man, haven’t you ever read my about-me link?”

Thanks Derek for allowing me the opportunity to connect with you despite my at times, intensely; meticulous, candor.

How-to Jockey’s, Social-Networking experts; Music, Film, and Authorship experts…..? When did this stop being about helping others have a good time with great songs and better entertainment?

Companies are now built on all sorts of premises involving ‘better-marketing’, learning tricks, finding the ‘niche’ and ‘target-audience’.

F*ck that.

When everyone knows every curve, angle, and buzz-word…then who will be blamed for mediocrity or unheard greatness?

I can’t think of a single fan of my music that doesn’t make their own choice; so what makes others think that they are performing the best filtering ever known to man?

I guess one of three things:

God
Government
Or self *

But nothing more I’m almost certain.

I can’t stand to muster, debate, or coagulate on ‘points of sale’, ‘points of assertion’. There are a lot of Suze Orman’s but not enough Led Zeppelin’s.

Anyway, let me know what you’re thinking.

(The rest of you can orgasm over whose more ‘guerilla’ — anywhere that isn’t near me) *

Respectfully & Sincerely,
