Its odd.
For those of you who didn't already know, I play guitar.
I was in a few bands that went nowhere fast and would occasionally write for them.
After the last one broke up, I didn't really feel like coming up with anything.
Here's the strange thing...in the last week I must have written about 30+ minutes of music...no freaking clue...I just started getting more really good sounding stuff going through my head!!!!!
At work, I'm doin' my job and all of a sudden I get this guitar harmony in my head...Literally my eyes went eek followed by surprised I GOTTA WRITE THAT THING OUT!!!!!!!!! so I got home and figured out how to play the parts, then just started playing another part...then another and another...
Now I'm like WTF?!?!?! How come I can never write good stuff when it matters?
Like the title says...I must be inspired...now to figure out what the hell did it...
LOL No Ume...not the fact that Maiden is coming to town in october whee
This happened about 4 days before I found that out.


So anyways, who else has had similar experiences with inspiration that comes from nowhere? Doesn't have to be musical or anything, just curious.

I get that alot in my writing and drawing. I'll have LONG dry spells where I won't write or draw and tehn suddenly I'm like "MUST DRAW!" or "MUST WRITE!" Though I've not had one of those inspiring moments since my last Semester at my last college. Having art professors tell you pretty much to "give up art" kinda killed my spirit in that light.


Musicly though... I can sing a bit... but I haven't sung "publicly" in a LONG time. And I can play the flute and play little diddies on it every now and again.

But nothing as "awe inspiering" as what you described.

Damn Raist X_X. Figure out how to use that recorder! I wanna hear!

I get that every now and then with my writing. I seem to always have writers block when I WANT to write >_<. But every now and then this idea crosses my mind and i'm like, "O.O HO's**t THATS AWESOME!" Then I start writing a story... and never finish cause the insperation leaves a few days later sweatdrop
I do have this story idea I came up with in 7th grade... I will write it once I get better though. The way I write now will do it no justice. (Yes, I think the story idea is that good. I refse to write it until I can get my idea out perfectly ^^)

And you know its because of Maiden, Raist rofl

I swear to god it isn't!
I was just at work doin' my thing listening to Dr. Demento and this harmony popped in my head...It drove me crazy for the next 8 hours after that. I got home and figured it out and suprisingly remembered it!
...Thats how I know its good! If something like that can be remembered it must be good^_^otherwise you'd forget it!
For the life of me, I truly don't know what put the thing in my head.
