Being a musician can be a competitive thing. What I mean is that people are always comparing musicians to each other. I know that as a drummer it can be hard for me to not look at guys that are faster then me, or more technical then me without starting to feel like I suck in comparison. Don't get me wrong, I do think that Im a good drummer. And I feel that seeing people that blows me away is a good motivator for me to practice more. But at the same time I know that to get into the who"s better game is not healthy or productive. So I go out of my way to avoid that.
But I admit, when I see a 20 year old guy who is 10 times faster then me and can seem to play circles around me thats a bit discouraging lol! But what I know is true is that all that matters when it comes to my playing abilities is if Im better today, in comparison to myself, then I was yesterday. It is true that we all truly have something unique to offer!
