Words Are Powerful, Thoughts Create Things: Positive Rock for the Ages is Born; Seattle Area Musicians Wanted

Joe The Connector Kennedy is a Positive RockerSince I started my personal journey blog at HowIQuitSmokingPot.com just over one week ago, there have been a lot of interesting things happening.  The blog has already evolved into a support site for a number of awesome people around the world and is no longer just about my journey.  I think that is really cool.

I have also started to create some healthier habits - including writing more, reading, actually watching entire movies and even singing into the PA system I bought for my 9 year old daughter Jacqueline Nataliya Kennedy a couple of years ago.

I've also started thinking a lot more.  A couple of ideas that are super true and important:  1) Words are important and 2) Thoughts become things.

In trying to learn the words to a few songs, I've come to realize that some (most?) of my favorite songs, some which I have listened to and sang along with (at least in my head) hundreds of times, are much less than positive and have not been helping me like I might think.

Stay with me here ....

My idea is to form a band of super positive and talented people and rewrite some existing famous tunes with totally positive slants. Once some of those are done, performed and recorded, it could be a really good platform to write, perform and record original positive songs.

It may seem even crazier, but I have already "been given" the title of the new genre of music (Positive Rock for the Ages) and name of the band (keeping this one under my hat for now).

While I would want to be heavily involved in the process and an opportunity to attempt to try performing (even with no talent) even if just once in awhile and as a back up singer with the mic turned off ;-0 - my highest and best use might be organizing and promoting the whole thing.  SO - I am now looking for local Seattle or Eastside musicians, singers and songwriters who are interested in collaborating on this type of project.  If you, or anyone you know are interested in discussing, please let me know!

BTW - if you are a musician of any experience, instrument, music genre or style, you are invited to join BandDating - the social network for musicians by musicians.
