Quote from Dave Mikesch: âMusicians often go through life worrying about fame, money, and other peopleâs opinions of their music, which to me, is a recipe for disaster! If you worry about those things, it takes away from the joy of music. You obviously canât please everyone, no matter talented you are and how great your songs are. So to me, the thing Iâm most proud of is that I have my own style â nobody really sounds like me but me. To be unique in a world of millions of musicians is truly a wonderful accomplishmentâ.
