My goal is to get good, I mean really good, on the guitar. Not world-class good, but good enough to play the musical ideas in my head without a struggle.

I'd also like to get to the point where I'm performing in front of an audience regularly (ie. more than two or three times a year).

1 - i hope to form/join a psychobilly/surf band when i get home. I hope to be good enough that when people see us play they has he is a good guitar player
2 - i hope that one day my guitar says what i am feeling when i play
3 - i dream of meeting the 5.6.7.8's one day.

in many ways, i had my dream.

during the 60's our band won talent contests, were on tv several times, played in front of thousands of people at city sponsored events, and had our name in the paper often, all before we were 18 years old.

i also took first place in 62 and 63 at a contest for guitar players

i'm glad it happened while i was young. don't know how i would have reacted if i was in my 20's or older. sometimes you believe a little too much what people say about you

To be a professional bass player for a living.

At one time it was too be in a band and produce albums and tour--wouldn't have needed to be chart toppers or anything--just a strong loyal following--and playing music I enjoyed.

But that didn't happen.

It would still be cool in some ways, but I have other priorities--but to have an album out that is well received by fans would be cool.
Or even a guest appearance on somebody else's album--playing music I enjoy.

And a concert appearance or two--don't need the tour, just one night would be cool.

But something that could happen?
I'll continue to be physically & mentally able to keep playing until I die at a ripe old age, surrounded by family & friends.
And I'll still get a kick out of it.

And to have more time to play.
