I just want to bang out some standards at parties and for the family at Christmas.

I do make one every few months whenever I'm furious with the process. One of the biggest issues I've always had with music is that I always feel like I should be ahead of where I am, and its discouraging when I can't sit and play a song.

If I could find a way to not see myself in the scheme of things, and just as a guy with an instrument, I'd be much much better off. With piano and guitar I go crazy, but oddly enough i spent an hour yesterday ****ing around with scales and songs on the button accordion I have and in hindsight I feel like its because I've never seen someone, not on stage, play a button accordion and I don't know many songs I think are easy.

I think I need to get high and just play.
