The Endless Road to Stardom

.

It had to happen I guess. Being exposed to music played at very high levels on a daily basis you’d expect some sort of bonus really. As I turn my head slightly to the right, people automatically turn their mouths to the left.
There for I nod politely to their faces as if to say that I’ve understood every word spoken in our little galaxy just created speaking so closely to one’s ear.

But nothing could be further from the truth. I’d have to say of course, when in crowded places where everyone has something to say to one and other which undoubtedly is of utmost importance, one would have to try and speak above the noise of the intoxicated conversationists. Partaking in peoples happiness to verbally jollywolly about, I get the feeling that also these people don’t quite get what’s being said. Even with ears working in pairs.

So I guess looking on the bright side, thus my ‘ bonus’ is, that at least I have one good reason to block out all nonsense being spilled out into my universe like space junk. While I just float about on the inside of my self, waiting for the next amazing revelation coming from the undisputed experts, I wonder which ear it is that’s going to do the job filtering out this overflow of useless information in drib drab dribble form.

Not only my ear has packed it in but my studio monitor ( also the right one ) has died as well. Luckily with that I didn’t have to go to the doctor’s to have it checked to see if something more sinister was going on inside. It’s just given up. Instead of a trip to the hospital, I went to the shop and bought my self another pair of speakers.

Amazing what a difference.
Even for the “ mono” listener like me there’s definitely a world of difference.
I feel I can hear again. So who knows maybe in a few years time I can do the same with my ear and have a good one fitted without too much drama. For now I’m happy my studio is up and running and strange as it may sound, I can hear everything again. I’ll just sit sideways and hear two speakers talking to me into one ear. The difference here of course is there no piss talk needing to be filtered out.
I just sit here and face the music.
