An Audiophile

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 

 

Just a little something I wrote up a couple minutes ago. Tell me what you think :)

 

 

 

 

To hear the wooden footpedels being pressed, to hear every string on a violin, to feel the 
 
weight of a piano's keys, to feel the grain of the wood in their hands;
 
To know what it's like on that stage in front of thousands, to know that your life's dedication 
 
is resting all in this single moment in time; nothing else matters, nothing else is real.
 
To feel, to FEEL the weight of the world on their shoulders as they take that first breath... 
 
the first breath before they pour their very soul out into the instrument in their hands;
 
To hear their life's dedication of the reproduction of the most gracious, the most powerful, the 
 
most complete work of art to ever be heard;
 
To hear the soundwaves themselves slow and hasten to the temperature in the room; to hear a 
 
complete 1 to 1 reproduction of the most moving man-made creation ever produced. 
 
To be able to completely replicate that feeling, that sound, that moment in time... to be able 
 
to completely experience that same exhilarating feeling of being finally complete...
 
To be able to feel the admiration, the pain, the sorrow; to be able to fathom the very existance 
 
of the soul of an individual in its raw, untaimed form. 
 
This is why I do it. This is why I am an audiophile.

I am a complete fool. You would be an idiot to view anything I say as more than total nonsense. My brain is comprised mostly of Jell-O and peanuts.

Nice though Young Spade. Good description of why most of us appreciate this hobby and music itself.

Holy cow, I must have been, I guess. I can safely say I've never done that before.

 

I am so exhausted. Two hours of sleep is wreaking havoc on my common sense. I think I've successfully fixed my first post.
