Re: Who's your most important teacher?

I just discovered the thrill of teaching myself within the past semester and a half. Most of it is just expanding on what we do in my lessons, or discovering new ways to revisit some of what I already learned. I have become a much better player, in part, due to this; being able to teach myself in the practice room and talk about it at lesson time.

Andrew,
I am not sure how the others feel, but if your post remains relevant to the topic or the story you are telling, it cannot be too long. I enjoy reading a nice post from a professional and learn from a story, even if it is drawn out, than to read just the bare essential of it. The stories make it seem much more real to life.
And with the hopes of this not straying too far off topic, when were you with Savannah, I heard somewhere that the group ended up folding due to lack of funds. (not sure if this is true, even though I am only an hour up the road)
