I believe music is about what the artist wants...true that some focus too much on the technical side with less catching melodies. But the best of both worlds is also possible and more challenging to the artist. So many of these artists aren't appreciated as much as they should be. Being amazingly self aware of the importance of melody behind the awesome skills!

When people begin to share their knowledge rather than keep it to themselves, everyone benefits and the music lives on forever. It's never about who can become the king or queen of the hill, it's about the longevity of the music.

"So much of what's good about music ceases to make sense when you attempt to analyse it from a 'Who's the best?' perspective" - Guthrie Govan

"The toughest thing about success is, you've got to keep on being a success. Talent is only a starting point in business. You've got to keep working that talent." - Irving Berlin

"The pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; the optimist, the opportunity in every difficulty." - L.P. Jacks

"Imagination is more important than knowledge" -Albert Einstein

"What do you really want to say musically? Play a phrase and damn well mean it! Every note from beginning to end!" - Chris Standring

"Why are you hesitating? Isn't this your dream? Now that it's right in front of you, it's no time to hesitate. You have to get excited and reach out for it, no matter what." - Tomoya Okazaki.
