YES!!! thank you for this post!!! I couldn't have said it better myself. am stealing all of it!!!!
Want to post my reply on what I practice (and will get to it-I promise!) but am a bit behind thanks to a leak in my horn that I had to get fixed and a bunch of music I've got to shed for Brazil this week and ,oops-oh yes, all of my effects that need bubble wrapped and packed so they make it safely down south.
:)
Speaking of great 'MUSIC'. I saw a very electric and very happening band this week. Cindy Blackman and co. at Dizzy's. Too bad they had to play at the DIET COKE, Women in Jazz Festival, an event that I boycott as a leader for a number of reasons. Will open a new forum topic on it soon. Peace and happy playing. Will do my best to get online poolside next week in Rio. This week is going to be a bust with travel,rehearsals, clinics,soundcehcks and FINALLY, the gig in Ouro Preto.
Ij over and out.
