The art in question is music and I've been recording and playing it for over 10 years. Yet, getting people to come to shows or even show the slightest bit of interest gets harder and harder as the years go by. Maybe I'm not very good. I don't know. I think I'm pretty good. One would think after 10 years you'd get to be fairly proficient at your craft. Still, after all this time, the indifference shown to me hits my like a brick in the face after each show and after each release. It's really hard to do something time and time again with no appreciation. Music makes me happy, but it also makes me very sad. The whole "you should just be happy with it because you're doing what you love" mentality only works for a while. I'm passed that. That's not good enough. That's like having your mother tell you're a handsome man. It's not the same as validation from your peers. Should I just quit?
