So onto my experience of time – I am sure it is the same for everyone else who gets to my stage in life and it is a cliché that we all know time gets faster. There is only so much time to get all the things that you want to do done and every day that passes there is less of that time. Conclusion – do what you want to do now, do not wait until tomorrow, or for when the time is right, or the weather is better, or you have done your exams. And don’t piss around; keep focussed on what it is you are trying to do, even if part of that is is not quite knowing what it is. Do not wait for someone to give you permission. You do not need to be given permission to make great music, you just make it. Or you die trying. Either way you win.
