You know ~ the competitive nature of any contest ~ should not deter the heartfelt joy in the eventual, inevitable selection of a winner, and the recognition of said winner by the ENTIRE BODY OF PARTICIPANTS ~ should be something embraced by all !
Music is not a contest, per say, of either critical acclaim ~ or financial gain.
Music is an organized realization of sonic occurrence, and something that neither I ~ nor most of my contemporary musicians ~ are overly qualified to pass judgement on.
At this time, I admonish ALL MUSICIANS ~ to rejoice in every victory by one of our own.
I bring up one of the oldest, and by far more popular ~ acceptable behaviors ~ in the history of mankind.
It's called the GOLDEN RULE . . .
Do unto others as you would like to be done to you.
Put your self in the other cats shoes.
We can all root for an underdog.
We are not rats in a maze.
We are sooooooooo much more !!!!!
