More Hendrix

Listening to more of Jimi, and appreciating his art more... Listening to Axis: Bold as Love.
Getting more knowledge of practicing, etc., as I'm reading more of the Chord Tone Soloing Book.

Appreciate how artists like Hendrix and Thelonious Monk seemed to be more concerned about their art than what others thought of that art...This can connect with Christianity in that there is a verse which says something like 'blessed are you when they ridicule you because of me (my paraphrase).'

Be yourself with your art, don't be afraid of standing up for your art, and your Christian beliefs, and your Roman Catholic beliefs, and ypur belief in Jesus Christ. Don't be afraid of being yourself when you know what you are is true in Jesus.

These days its not considered cool to be a fervent believer in Jesus, and if you talk about it, you are seen as a weirdo...

But let your freak flag fly.....
