Flying for the first time tomorrow.

Nice video interview with Noel Gallagher of Oasis, one of my favourite songwriters, on the Take It Away web site, about music and learning to play an instrument. Take It Away is an Arts Council (England) initiative designed to help more people get involved in learning and playing music.

Love how the interview ends —

Playing an instrument shouldn’t be a career move, you know… it should be something that fills you with joy. And then if you find after five years you can’t play it, fuckin’ so what? Stick it on and stand in the corner and look good. — Noel Gallagher, Oasis, on learning to play the guitar
