With that said, let this be our Mission Statement, for lack of a simpler term. ...My friend Gooch calls it our Tablature. A place for sober artists of every stripe, or those sobering up. A Sober Studio if you will, that our music and art may thrive beyond our addiction. One more crucial thing, folks... You gotta be wanting to have fun if you visit the forums! For years, we played music in bars, or Pete's garage on Friday Nights, or on the corner of Portage and Main, watching the dimes and quarters drop in the case... Some of us played until our fingers lost their touch... Some of us played until the notes inside our minds exhausted themselves into staccato silences... Most of us played loaded with alcohol and drugs, believing they were the fuel to express our passion, a way to transcribe that which we felt was our link to the cosmic, the divine, the undefinable... In these pages, in no particular order or organized fashion, are our stories, our hopes and fears, our joys and sorrows, past and present. We're Treating Life Well now...
From wikipedia: "An addiction or dependence is a recurring compulsion by an individual to engage in some specific activity, despite harmful consequences to the individual's health, mental state or social life. The term is often reserved for drug addictions but it is sometimes applied to other compulsions, such as problem gambling, and compulsive overeating. Factors that have been suggested as causes of addiction include genetic, biological/pharmacological and social factors."
