Of Rock and Roll and Such


After you’ve added up all of the hours in a day that are accounted for by one thing or another, many of us realize that we’ve already jammed 25 hours of stuff in a 24 hour day. Here at Brunswick Media Services, its often that we’re working on a video or some other project all hours of the day and night to meet a customer deadline. Combine that with having to all of the other things throughout your day, you’re overbooked.

I got into the audio and video business through my love of music, lets just say that a Fender Guitar got me into all of this. My first Fender still sits in my studio staring at me saying “I’m still in tune…let’s play!” But there’s that whole time thing. video to edit, kids to coach, gutters to clean. But every once in a magical while I get the chance to warm up my tube Peavey amp and still crank out a few chords. You have to pay your dues to the guitar gods once in a while to keep your chops, but with my schedule lately, you could call them pork chops instead of guitar chops.

But I really believe its still important to get back to your roots once in a while and remember how you got to where you are and what got you there. Without music, I wouldn’t have ever recorded and edited audio, and without that I would never have gotten into video editing and production. You become what you love and what you believe in, not what the world thrusts upon you…unless you let it. So go ahead…take a few moments and do the things that you love to do and which got you to where you are today. A little Rock and Roll cranking from a honkin’ amp does the soul good. Who cares what the neighbors say!<
