I Fail Enough And I Beat Myself

Don't Ask For Anyone's Permission To Follow Your Dreams

I Heard Today Was The Day Kurt Passed Away 17 Years Ago. Can’t Believe It’s Been That Long. So Grateful For His Contribution And Inspiration. Not Sure I’d Be Doing This If It Weren’t For Him. He Gave Us All Permission To Create No Matter What Our Skill Set And Reminded Me That Dreams Are Possible. Thanks For That. This Made Me Recall A Short Piece Of Film I Shot When I Heard They Were Making A Film Celebrating His Life. I Made It To Explore The Character And Explore Creative Possibilities. I Never Sent It To The Studio Or To Anyone But Thought I’d Share It Now...

I Had Traveled To Russia And Met With Snowden, Which Was A Pretty Involved Meeting That Required Encrypted Communication And The Like. And It Was Fascinating Because Of Who He Is And What He's Done. And More So Because What's Going On Between Our Two Countries, Russia And The U.s., And To Meet Edward Snowden In Russia Was Unforgettable.

I Win And Succeed Only 'cause I Fail So Much. I Fail All The Time. I Wrote 70 Songs Just To Have 12 Good Ones. For The Video I Shot 60 Hours Of Footage. 60 Hours! To Come Up With An 8 Minute Video. So Really I Only Win 'cause I Fail.
