quote:
the next step is to play from the heart, if it's not from the heart what is the point??? I think if it is not, it just becomes ego and commerce playing from the heart is a nice idea but dosent always work out that way, u not always feeling everything, but u still need to do it cause its planned. if u play for a school u dont always get to play just what u are feeling, so u need the discipline of beeing able to lie convincingly (that u are playing from the heart) and belive it or not all it part of a guiarists tools, heart, discipline, lying, ego (prefer to call it pride) so i wouldnt be in a hurry to place ego as a bad thing, its not a bad thing to have when performing in front of people. ego, self belive, pride whatever u wanna call it its the same thing, its a necesary thing to have. while playing in front of people u have to convince yourself that u are good at what you do (even if u know better) otherwise youl never sell it. so in theory it sounds nice in reality is more mecanical. to the average listener is "magic' to the guitarist, its a hole lot of plannig and practicing, and scales and prerehersed actions. practiced 1000 times. I dont know how u can play anything 1000 times and truly play it from the heart. this is where lying to yourself that you are playing from the heart comes in. IMO
