Wimer is right. He is going to have to develop a tough skin if he doesn't already have one. When Bud got the job he wasn't replacing a legendary figure BUT he did have to have a tough skin to deal with the conductors he'd come to know and people always wondering when he was going to slip.
He dealt with it just fine.
I don't know Chris' playing but I know that he's a fine player and will make his mark on that chair.
