When Bad Reviews Happen To Good People

Boy, this one rings true.

I just had to deal with my first ever bad recommendation. The points were valid. That did not make it sting any less. I hope that I was able to deal with the person’s concerns in a way that satisfied him.

I truly enjoy sharing music whether it’s my own or others. I enjoy sharing the philosophy and joy of this artistic medium.

For those of you that might’ve had similar concerns to this person I believe in transparency. Here it is. I had a really great website that went from free to over $200/year in one fell swoop. It was something that was months in the making. I had to shop not one, two but three ISPs before signing up with Bandzoogle. Starting over isn’t easy. Great company, great customer service but a little bit tricky setting up the site and I’m not quite finished. I also lost my URL in the process and had to change it. I did not change it here on the page because I’m not yet ready to present the new and improved Website. This person took issue with that.

Further transparency. I have been struggling with a severe case of stage fright for the past year and a half, which has impacted my recording or making YouTubes of my music. I am taking steps therapeutically to get past this. It is slowly improving and I’m looking forward to the day that I can share my music proudly with all of you, but for those of you that want a little taste , samples of my music are in my reels. This person evidently could not find them.

If anyone has concerns, I hope this has alleviated them. I further hope that if somebody has a concern, they would private message me before posting a bad recommendation.

If you have read this far, thank you. Know that I appreciate you and my music is an expression of my love for all of you.
