Hello. I’m Markus and I write songs, work on them and then record them. I hate playing live these days. I feel so naked and vulnerable when doing so. And all that soundcheck crap and equipment and setting up. Ugh. I would just prefer to play at home. Or on a beach somewhere. Maybe do online concerts. This live thing didn’t bother me before… I guess that’s why people like me get bands around them. To hide. Perhaps I should get a band. Then again, not sure if there are people like me. Maybe I’m an alien. An alien suffering from a serious condition called humanity.
In many ways I’m a complete failure as a musician and a human being (assuming I’m not an alien). But that is also inspiring in a way. And funny. Life is a tragedy. A comedy. A tragicomedy. Whatever. I fuck my life up on purpose to make things more interesting. I guess I am a true bluesman at heart. I am addicted to misery and drama. I love attention. My ego is huge and out of control sometimes. And I genuinely find it funny how bad things can get and how my laughing at it means even my problems aren’t serious. When there is no more laughter, then we are in trouble.
Anyways, I’m working on lots of new songs and will put them online soon and probably make another album. I really hate all my previous work and I hope you burn your copies if you have any.
btw, the title of this blog is from a new song of mine called “Neverending War”. The alternate title option was “Hitler won” (also from that song) but I though it would’ve been a bit too much.
thnx for reading.
