As all music passionate people, pro or not, we would like to have that little something, by which people recognize us, right?

I had a period when I wanted to play like Steve Vai - the bad part is, I became obsessed and I even started to look like him. Now there's a part which is even worse smile.gif I COULD NEVER PLAY LIKE STEVE VAI DOES. But I was too blinded by the idea and I was not seeing that I was walking on thin ice who was just about to crack.

Somehow, I don't exactly remember when and how, I started exploring different musical ideas which helped me widen my horizons and realize that there's more to music than being able to play like Steve Vai.

The question is: Does this idea appeal to you as being something important? If, yes, how do you work on achieving this? smile.gif
