as a musician. What is it?

To compile a selection of people with enough brains to even have a gig..

I find it hard to have musical chemistry with anyone, and so I never get far with anything.

For the time being; release a kick ass album in digipak format, that features no weak songs, no fillers.

To write a song and have people listen to it and enjoy it, that goal will probally come up a bit once I get off my ass and do something, but until then thats it.

to gig and record a demo

To support a family off music alone.

To support a family off music alone.

Amen to that, brother.

To play the Academy in Manchester (any of them). Once I've done that, I'll aim a bit higher!

Great question!

Right now I'm working towards it with my new CD. I have a new sound that I am imagining that is a mixture of world music, death metal, and straight up pop. The CD I'm doing now is 10 songs, each song is inspired by the music of a different country (Italy, Russia, Japan, etc.), so the entire thing is supposed to feel like a sort of trip around the world. I like to call my style "adventure metal". I'm using violins, sitars, glockenspiel, everything I can think of. It's like a big party.

the barrowlands glasgow... that would rule
i'm playing the doghouse in dundee tomorrow night and blaze bayley has played on that stage so i'm pretty chuffed about that

For me, I would just love to be able to write some music I was proud of (that did something unique, was intelligent and had some solid emotional content) and have it be liked by peopel who's opinions I respect (ie rather than a alarge audience) I can't even seem to make anything I remotely like though, so I can't see me reaching that stage

I'd just like to make some songs that make people feel something.

I simply love performing.
It's shameful and I think I need professional help.
Maybe it has something to do with my twisted personality.
I'm firm about playing music I believe in... and I'm a perfectionist.... but basically I'm a genre whore and just want to be your eyecandy.
It's the truth....

Being paid a bit better than I am these days as a sound tech/demo producer, hehe!

Make enough money to quit my dayjob and concentrate on music all day long.

Yeah, I'm a dreamer....
