The Demo Disclaimer

You know what I’m talking about. Can it be gotten rid of?

“I mean, it’s just a scratch vocal”

“There’s definitely still a ton of work to be done”

“I haven’t been able to spend a ton of time on it but here it is anyway”

All that fear and insecurity that you dribble out just before you show someone the song that you’re working on…

It’s for you not them. 

They don’t gain anything by your preface even though you believe you’re doing it for their benefit.  And it exposes your weakness to them more than anything.

Just show the song and stand firmly behind what it is in the current moment.

No need for excuses or disclaimers.

Here it is…I made this…your opinion is important to me, what do you think?
