I think most musicians eventually accept that there's always something to work on, there's always someone you think is better than you, and the only way to get rich is by playing the keytar.

Hmmm the keytar, eh? I'd like to try that sometime. I remember someone saying, you never really get to make the art you set out to make; there's always a struggle between your idea and the medium you're working in. With painters, for example, you have an idea but the canvas and paint have their own behaviors and what you end up is never exactly what you had in mind.

Your post just reminded me of that. With us musicians, it's the fight between what we want to make with music, and the instrument itself; a piano is a beast with teeth you have to approach from the side, before it decides it's going to eat you alive.
