What a trip. I would have thought my last band was the pinnacle of music playing for me. That was a seriously hard hitting band with total pro players. It takes a long time to make that happen.
I'm sure I've posted this before - this is that band -
But now I see that there are even higher levels to achieve musically. I think that's pretty cool.
