A man called Miquel

Today I wanted to talk to you about one person who I've recently met and admire. His name is Miquel, from Barcelona. And this man has dedicated his entire life to music.

When Miquel was 10, he started learning to play guitar all by himself, and some years later a friend of his asked M for helping and teaching him. That was the moment when he realized he wanted to do that all his life.

Moreover, in Barcelona he owned a bar which organized plenty of gigs, shows and stuff: the blues and rock cafe. Of course he enjoyed it so much, he could invite all the bands he wanted to, but don’t believe it was easy. Cos he always thought that it was fair to pay to the bands, and expectators didn’t make big contributions so the trade-off was not always beneficial, in fact he used to lose money. But the thing is that he had his own bar and he enjoyed each moment.

But what’s still better: Miquel took part in a rock band, he was the lead guitarist but in addition he wrote most of the songs and was the responsible of the final fits. They become pretty known around Barcelona, but they separate due to some arguments they had.

His last step: M came to Madrid with his girl where he has been living for a few months. He’s still teaching in his own studio-conservatory called “Rockservatory”.

As far as I know, he listens to every kind of music and he can’t choose his favorite style. He likes blues, he likes heavy..what to listen to just depends on the situation. In fact, he’s still learning and adapting to the new changes and waves, which naturally come out over the time.

So here we got a person who has been able to dedicate his entire life to music; showing us that we only need some motivation to reach our goals. Because if you want to be in the world of music, you don’t have to be a superstar, there are so many other ways: management, Tv, radio, education, media..it’s all up to you. we only have to be brave, go ahead and try our best.

Go for your dreams, little rockers.

Here's a link to his website where he describes a little bit his workspace, with many technology and stuff, including a Gibson I'm in love with
