Although, Tori Amos has done a pretty damn good job dragging that piano where ever she goes. I saw one of her shows down here in South Florida a few months ago, and she is truly mesmerized by this instrument. She loses herself within every note that she plays. She really has inspired me in more ways than one to start (once again) writing songs on piano, and then of course translating them to guitar.


All that can say is that it's important to never set limitations for yourself, or least try not to. Because one these days, you just might be able to make your dreams come true. It's not about money, or receiving special recognition from your peers, it's about that one moment where you become one with your instrument, where everything stanbds still and almost nothing matters at all.
