Some people write the music first I don't. If I have an idea I write the top line on a piece of lined paper or anything. The best ones have to have a soul..... the best songs I ever heard paint a picture in your mind.... I'm not a pro like you or anything..... I don't have any words for the Woodstock 2 song.... I watched the Woodstock movie it gave me everything I needed.... I have no clue how I did it every song had to be 10 minutes. I can't make it shorter maybe I could take pieces of it.... it was the 40th anniversary of Woodstock and that is inspiration...... it does not have to be perfect I did not do more than one cut I did it to save it so I would not forget it.... I was thinking about the war 4 months when I made that one is the last one I made I got screwed up I have a mind block....... I remember my teacher when I was 6 years old........ I thought it was cool to play guitar in the 60s....... my parents couldn't afford lessons anymore man I should have kept that Harmony Guitar from the 60s...... but I think it helped me do you write the words first or the music I think you do the words....... my son makes hip hop music beats in Buffalo he says Play the song and he will make a beat I keep saying make the beat cuz I can't do it that's what I need the beat but eventually we will make a song..... I have to be open-minded even though I'm a child of the 60s I can do anything I learned the Blues lead I feel like everyone should learn that if you can do that you can do anything just speed it up on steroids 4 rock and roll LOL I like whatever camera you're using with the blown out background.... that is cool

Hi Nick, I really like your take on object writing. I have found the constraints of pure sensory words a bit limiting (I understand the concept, but lost interest). I’ll try again opening up the scope as you’ve suggested. Pedantic question: Do you start the 10 minute clock as you write your ‘gut thought’? Not sure I can interview, review the thesaurus, consult the rhyming dictionary without absorbing the whole time.

great video

I have the feeling you're going to mention "use somebody" by kings of leon. I had this epiphany yesterday. As a brazilian I only knew "use somebody" as manipulation and not "longing for somebody"

nice video. subed

If you stop mid-flow, at 10 minutes, when do you come back to the idea? What about revisiting 10 minutes material that didn’t seem inspiring in the moment and just checking that impulse to see if you missed a gem?

I'm not clear on the actual 10 minute exercise. Are we suppossed choose a word and capture the orginal gut thought? Then what? 3 minutes of that and then "interview time?" Then a few minutes of "freeform association?" A minute or two of "rhyme schemes?" Not sure how to allot my time in these 10 minutes. Thanks

Use makes me automatically think of all the people dying from Fentanyl

This video gave me anxiety.
