Hi, my name is Goliath Flores. I'm a musician and multi-media artist. Ask or tell me anything.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
To be open minded means that you entertain all arguments. ALL of them. That's when you realize that many people who told you that they're open minded are actually not, because they'll judge you for listening to an opposing political argument, or for lending an ear to someone from another religion. I think that it's a mistake to think that we can all like each other sometime in the future. That would require a considerable amount of hegemony, and that's the opposite of freedom, that's the opposite of open mindedness. Freedom isn't rainbows and unicorns, freedom is complex and can be dangerous, and scary. In the woods, an armadillo wanders off into the road, and someone else's freedom paved a road, and ran right over it while freely traveling from one city to another. Perhaps, the root of many of our social issues has to do with the inability to sit with discomfort. The way that tribesmen had to sleep, with bears, and lions, or giant ants, and snakes ...
Do you like chocolate chip cookies?
ReplyDeleteYes.
DeleteWhen are you going to play at Bold Bean again!!?? More people need to hear your wonderful music!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure at the moment. I'll talk to Jay, the owner, and let you know what we set up. And thank you for liking my work! :-)
DeleteHave you thanked everyone? I'm pretty sure there isn't a single person on Earth who doesn't like your work so I guess you'd better get started. lol
DeleteThat's incredibly nice to hear. Thank you. :-) I'll get started right away.
DeleteDo you like ginger ale?
ReplyDeleteIf there's nothing else to drink, yes.
DeleteSo you do not prefer it. And when you are out you do not ask for it with a lemon or lime garnish?
ReplyDeleteYou're doing it wrong. Haha.
DeleteAh, the man with the golden fingers. Such a treat to hear and see you perform at The Brick on Dec. 6. And what a great introduction to my friend Patricia's new love interest. You two are wonderful together. And your talent and energy have me inspired to get all my percussion instruments out of the closet and start making rhythms again. Have fun -- Kelley
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kelley! I simply adore Patricia and think she's fantastic! I'm happy to hear you getting your instruments out, it's a great thing, and I'm honored to trigger such a thing.
DeleteWhen is your next listing of shows after today (December 20th)? Also, why can't we all just get along? - Jenny K
ReplyDeleteI updated my website, but have only added two dates at the end due to the holidays: http://www.goliathflores.com
ReplyDeleteAlso, people can't get along because of egos mostly.
Do you perform at private parties?
