Honestly...is it?
When I was a kid...they told me musicians get women, and I became passionate about music and really got into it. I spent the last 15 years practicing and it became a very important part of my life. Then as I grew older and music evolved into whatever it is now, the guitar became less and less important. Looking back on it...playing the guitar has never really given me anything in life worth writing home about. Today, it just seems like another stupid thing I wasted my life and youth on.
Now tonight I went out for dinner with someone and I'm pretty sure that she really wanted to hit the dance floor...but I can't/don't dance. She's cool as hell so she didn't wanna make a big deal about it, but I felt like such a turd not being able to dance with her. I need to learn...its just so foreign to me...but I've always said that if it's hard...then it's probably worth doing.
Any advice to anyone who is learning to dance from scratch? And please don't say "just move to the beat" or something generic and useless like that. When people ask me to teach them to play the guitar I don't say "Just put your fingers on the neck and pluck the strings...it's sooooo eeeeeeeeeeeasy"...because it's not. Nobody expects people to be able to get on stage and geetar, but I need to be able to dance.
Sorry about the rant, I'm a little pissed @ myself and buzzing so forgive me.
