| I played a wedding one time and the bride was SLOWWWWWWW coming down the aisle and we got to the end of the piece. I was playing with a group of guys that were okay, but not great, but they were accustomed to playing together.
I figured we would go back to the beginning of the piece, but nooooooooo....... they had a place they went back to but had failed to let the new guy in on the secret place. I said what the heck, I'm lost and I'm mad, so I let a descant rip right off the top of my head on the last 16-measures of the piece. I have no idea where it came from but it was fine!!!!!!!!!!!
I got called a few weeks later by one of the guys who wanted to know where he could get a written copy of the descant I had played! To this day he does not believe that I made it up on the spur of the moment. Even I wish I had a tape of it! I amazed myself not only because it was good, but because I have no idea what got into me to do it right in the middle of a wedding!
