My Last Photo of 2006?
Monday, December 18th, 2006
Well, this shot will probably end up being the last photo of me taken in the year 2006. I’ve said this before, but I’m SO bad at picking photos of myself to use for promo stuff. It’s actually a little frustrating to see a picture of yourself that you think is "not half bad" only to have it shot down by someone else. It’s even weirder when it’s a photo that you think is bad and someone else loves it.
I suppose we all have different ideas of what we think we look like.
I know it might seem that because I post photos of myself, I’m some sort of ego-photo-monster fishing for compliments but the reality is, I’m pretty sensitive and with each photo I post… I’m nervous as to what people think. Of course, It’s nice to be liked. We all want that…some more than others. If only LIFE could be so bad to only have to worry about what photo to pick. LOL
Just know, if you think I look bad in a photo, I look twice as bad in person
I’m lucky if I get 1 or 2 "OK" looking shots out of a 100. So, by seeing this photo above, there’s about 98 shots from the same shoot in which I look ultra-goofy.
You would think that doing MUSIC that it shouldn’t matter what someone looks like…only what they sound like…. but things like a photo for a CD Cover is a MAJOR decision. So maybe my next CD Cover should have a bunch of nudity on it? (just as long as it’s not me being the nude one)
By the way…this all goes for songs written as well. A song I write and think is "a hit" …and in which a ton of thought and time went into might not catch the majority’s ear …while a campy little 3 chord song that takes me 3 minutes to complete will get all the attention. I’ll not complain too much though…I’ll just be happy that a song is liked AT ALL
