How To Use Zakk Wylde's Roasting And Become A Great Player--Don't Take Insults Personally With These Tips

Be forewarned: I get very crude in this article so don't take it personally players. Earlier this year Zakk Wylde was roasted by fellow musicians and friends at City National Grove in Anaheim California. I wish I was there to watch the insulting and insanity begin. One of rock and metal's Guitar Masters Zakk Wylde who was with Ozzy for years, and then started Black Label Society which has grown like crazy for fans and musicians who love the man like I do and his music.

Being roasted by friends and fellow musicians is something you might want to do yourself. It gets you out of yourself and have the guts to take insults without  feeling offended. So what if you're a fuck up in life, get over it and move on. Zakk did it and so have a lot of Hollywood luminaries from the 60's and 70's where a lot of them started roasting each other. Zakk being the balls to the fuckin' wall lad he is, let it rip with his own insults right back and let the insults fly fast and furious at himself as well. He loved it man!

Here's a few principles to help you when being insulted like the dog you are:

Being an addict: Laugh your fucking head off when people tell you how messed up you are on drugs and booze. Especially, when the addict telling you this is the King of drug addiction and got you started on drugs. Rehab is for quitters.

Being a Shitty Guitar Player: Laugh your fucking head off when fans, band members and industry people say to your face, and behind your back what a shitty player you are and your material sucks. Just get better despite what they say.

Making Mistakes On Stage: Laughing your fucking head off when you make a mistake on stage, then  play through the mistake like the pro I know you are.

Sexual Prowess: Your wife says you're a shitty lover and have a 2 inch cock, and that's on a good day. The women who say what a great lover you are and have a 9 inch big dick, are the hookers you pay 250 an hour to say this shit. Laugh your fucking head off. 

And make sure you laugh so fucking hard daily with your fellow players you can feel it in your nuts!

And help out musicians in need too guys. I help local blues players and provide written articles, bios and press kit material for them for free. As well as helping them get free publicity. Set up a bank account between your fellow players in your band to help pay for blues cats in need who need  transportation or buying equipment for them, or paying for gas to gigs. Use money you can afford.

If they're a blues musician you like and respect, have them open for your band. Interview them and help them get ahead. Who knows, a great joint venture could be in the midst with one of your blues mentors.

But laugh your fucking head off about life, play your ass off and help your fellow musician.
