For me, it has always been about working with other musicians to make something great. The sad fact of the matter is that there are fewer musicians today than there were in the nineties. Music simply isn't as culturally important to people today.

With regards to music tech, "this kicks my ass" is always more important than the proprietary vs FOSS debate. Always take the path of least technical resistance to doing what you enjoy creatively. In my case it just happens to be using Ubuntu Studio.

I'm not even sure why I was so disinterested in music during all of these years, especially considering how involved I was and how I considered it "my life " when I was younger. During the dead years time, I felt very much like it was easily reproduced nonsense used to sell things and nothing more. However, I had felt that way before I completely pulled away from playing entirely all of those years ago.

Something changed in me. Not too sure what it is though ... yet. ;)

Yep! It's morning now and maybe I'm viewing things differently, but maybe our inner creative can be satisfied regardless of the medium. That dead time led me to some conservation work that was really valuable to me, even if on a very small scale.
