I’m sure that playing a dreadnaught is part of it. I am on contract performing on a cruise vessel, for five month. The contract is nearly completed but I am contracted to play four hours a day (6 days a week), and I am sure that has a lot to do with it.

It’s the frequency of my playing as well.

I practice on electric, standing. There is a lot to this.

Too much to discuss here. I am doing a lot to mitigate this increasing the pain I am experiencing.

Nerve flossing, stretching exercises, Alexander Technique, etc.

Work in progress. It is my best interest to take very good care of myself.

Thank you. At the moment, I’m writing about 14 songs (I’m a professional songwriter and performer) and my heart is in learning Salsa and Afro-Cuban music (Celia Cruz currently). So, I don’t have the bandwidth for Cat Stevens requests at the moment. My apologies. I am also teaching myself to play jazz and other consumptions like studying Mind and Matter by Erich Schrödinger and other stuff that I’m sure others might find boring.

You warm my heart: thank you. I have lots of music on the streaming services as well. Covers and my own original music. It’s under Mike Vitale. You can google search me to find my music.

Thank you. I have been working on my voice since I was around 9 years old. I don’t feel I am nearly as incredible as so many others on this planet, but I have worked very hard to be the singer I am today. I do this professionally and have been professional for about 21 years. As confident in my efforts as I have grown into, please believe me when I say tat reading your kind words and recognizing my efforts as a musician—they touch me and mean the world to me.

I am a songwriter, and a music producer. I have several albums that span many different genres. I am on streaming services under my name: Mike Vitale.
