Music and the Brain
Creativity & spirituality
The anchor of spirituality makes fear of failure far less incapacitating, and prevents the creative person from being pulled into the black spot of depression & self-condemnation #JeffCrabtree
Marina Prior on failure
I'm not scared of failing because I know that the failure will not define me ... And success doesn't define me either #MarinaPrior

Best friends
@nickygumbel: Best friends are people who make your problems their problems, just so you don't have to go through them alone.

Trace Bundy on using multiple capos
"Love Song" is in DADGAD, & I use three different capos. I put a Drop D capo at the 5th fret. Next I place a full capo at the 4th fret. Finally I put the silver four-spring capo on the head stock within easy reach ... the capos facilitate the descending & ascending bass line of the song (Guitar Player August 2014)
