Working on my aesthetic appeal

One thing i've been using alot of my time with is attempting to understand the psychology of the human condition. My perception is that the majority of people are used to being led by an authority figure, whether is a parent, a political representative, a friend, or even a partner. Also, people who claim to be self preserving motivate themselves by writing down things in a third perspective, effectively creating an illusion of an authority figure.

The reason i'm mentioning this is because I feel that as much as we appreciate an authority figure in our life, the line has been crossed many times in our society where we are told what to do instead of being mentored. As a result we end up flocking in unison for a goal that we never set for ourselves individually. When you go out and meet people in clubs, bars, even libraries, you can see they are craving for a unique perspective. Sometimes the most obvious things can be a shock to their system.

Anyway, musically my material is coming along very nicely. Even though i've been working on this project since the big bang, there's nothing better than knowing your material is that much stronger because...well, you've grown up that little bit more. But during my musical outbreaks I realised I was missing a key component of the package. My aesthetic appeal. I have no look! Sometimes I feel like Surinder Sahni from Punjab Power.



Just like Surinder created an alter ego to win the love of his wife, I need to figure out my own alter-ego, my persona, my on stage character. This is going to take a while. But I give myself 6 months until im confident. 3 months of vigorous exercise, and 3 months of character building. By that time my music should be ready to hit the ears of eager listeners.

But in the mean time, im going to be inside four walls and answering the phones with "Hurshy Kalsi Punjab Power, lighting up your life Sir"
