Thoughts on Feedback
I too am slowly working my way through listening to and commenting on all of your awesome songs. This week is filled with wonderful back-to-back musical things, starting with a uke jam Wednesday, big jam last night (Thursday), Bucky Pizzarelli and Grover Kemble show tonight, big music party and/or FiL's big gig tomorrow, and ending with another uke jam at my new home (which still needs unpacking!) on Sunday. So it may be a few days.
Re feedback, clearly it needs to be up to the individual. Some of us are eager for feedback, some just want positive acknowledgment of what we've done well, and, I think, many of us may have mixed feelings. I for sure want to get better at this, so I want feedback that helps me do that. And ... like many of us, I'm also sensitive, and have to learn to deal with my own emotions and reactions better in order to be able to take it in. I suspect most of us fall somewhere in that middle ground.
I wonder if maybe we could use some kind of notification system when we post here, something like:
1) Feedback ... Bring It On!
2) Please help me improve ... and be gentle about it
3) Positive feedback only, please
Or maybe letters, like US movie ratings. Or something. Just a thought to get the discussion rolling.
