It is good to hear music has helped you over the years Shy Introvert.

Music is one of the best things this world has to offer and how anybody can go through life without it is beyond me because there are so many different genres for everybody and songs that people can relate to that can make them feel happy and sad. Music in my opinion is an art form of emotions and it can be very therapeutic especially for people who are suffering from depression and I know we are both not alone in saying music has saved our lives because I have met many artists who say the same thing and some of them have gone on to become very successful here. I don’t think many people see how important music is and just how much of an impact it can have on people’s lives and it is safe to say without music this world would be a very dark and dull place.

Your sister is a very phony and shallow person and I am sorry you don’t have a more caring sister like mine but from what you have told me she is the weak one because she isn’t willing to admit that she has problems and get help for them while you have. I have met some people like that and often their explosive behavior brings other people down with them and if she is going to constantly be cruel and put you down you should tell her to cut it out or you will cut her out of your life. Hailey has cut a few of her old friends out of her life that she believed were just using her and it wasn’t easy for her to do at first but years later she knows how better off she is without them. You are not a freak and to me a freak is somebody like a serial killer, pedophile, rapist or ice addict and I take it you are none of them but if you like here is a great song to really stick it to anybody that thinks you are.



What type of music do you like and have you been to any concerts with your husband lately?

Hailey and I have been to a number of major festivals over the years such as the Byron Bay Blues and Roots Festival, Big Day Out, Splendour In the Grass, Tamworth Country Music Festival, Soundwave, A Day On the Green, CMC Rocks (which was our idea but they took the credit), Gympie Muster etc and we have seen some of the biggest Australian rock bands like Something For Kate, Powderfinger, You Am I, Magic Dirt, Jebediah, Superjesus, The Living End, The Vines, Jet, My Friend the Chocolate Cake, The Whitlams, Alex Lloyd, Regurgitator, Grinspoon, Ben Lee, Custard, Little Birdy, Tex Perkins, Angie Hart, Abbey Dobson and Thirsty Merc along with country music artists like Adam Harvey, Beccy Cole, Catherine Britt, Jonah’s Road, Felicity, Diana Corechan, Amber Lawrence and Troy Cassar-Daley.

I own a very large CD collection which currently stands at over 3850 albums (not including my Wife’s albums) and most albums I buy now from Amazon because they are very cheap compared to most of the CD shops here which charge up to $30 an album.
