Blogging repost

Ok, blogging... whilst not a new phenomena, slightly alien to this newby. I guess with blogging people share what's on their mind, in their heart or a bee in their bonnet! This may be a little of all those things and some... So...most of you who don't know us as individuals and or personally are probably wondering what this TAUN thingee is about. I can only speak from my perspective, I'll leave the guy's to put their own spin on it. For me TAUN is an expression of work, passion, general love and respect of music and musicians, excitement, nerves and last but not least WORK! I think its great for musio's in general to perform and express themselves with music and the like, as a hobby; but.... I think those who are unable to switch off the drive or passion of it, can see it as a bit of a curse and music expression and performance eleviates that somewhat. For me music allows me an outlet of creative expression, I haven't been able to paint of sketch for a number of years and music suffices. TAUN is a part of this expression, although Bass playing is something that I can do and enjoy doing, vocals are what I really enjoy. TAUN has been a part of my life for a number of years (although under different names) and what most people listen to now in regards to TAUN is the manifestation of years of frustration, disillusionment combined with belief and hope of what could be. Most have heard the saying that 'God helps those who help themselves...' I believe there is some truth to this statement, Not in a sense of taking what you want for the simple fact that you can (i.e. ripping off someone) but more in a sense of WORKING at what you are capable of doing and not trying to control, what is out of your control. To some extent TAUN is hard work in the sense of preparation and on the other hand, allowing the flow of occurrances to happen as they will... not because of chance, but to some degree... divine intervention. My Mum use to say that if something good came your way then "someone upstairs is looking after you." What do you believe?
Is fame and fortune earned through:
*alot of hard work and a little 'devine intervention';
*a little hard work and a lot of 'devine intervention';
*all 'devine intervention';
* all hard work and no devine intervention.
and why do you think that?

Let me know, I'm genuinely interested.

Peace out... [ANA MAC] :o)
