i find this "blank stare" appear with 99% of the people who ask me what 
kind 
of music i play, there is a little excitement when i say i play guitar, 
but 
the second i bring up the idea of playing with "sounds", creating a sonic 
wallpaper, they all get a bit fuzzy and want me to go away or a least 
change 
the topic........perhaps its my inability to communicate what i do without 
getting into the "tech" aspect.........."are you in a band?" is always the 
question after "what do you play" and when i answer, "i am the band" they 
seldom, if ever say "tell me more"............thank goodness for
