Wow You mean I might have a chance to be on a CD??? I suck (even my own daughter says so) "Dad, I was wondering Why, uh if you've been playing the guitar for thiry years and all, uh, how come you can't play as good as Tim who's only been playing since last summer?" Of course she is young and doesn't understand the PHILOSOPHY OF LOOPING (i.e. playing the same thing over and over again-. Remember, these looping machines are new, in the old days, we had to spend precious practice hours actually playing the damn thing over and over again). Anyway, I got an extra hundred bucks if I can be on the CD w/ Matthias! It'll blow my daughter's mind! :-). Democracy, ain't it great!
