Hopefully, we can all have a conversation in peace, without trolls, without baiting, without ad hominem attacks from those that disagree, where we can all respectfully learn something................where can that happen?

But, at this point, I'm not really interested to know. I said my piece! |

In this instance, I know that this wasn't a glorius bit of evidence pointing to my restraint and humility. But, as I mentioned, I don't apologize for it. In fact a few guys already wrote in saying that they understand where I am coming from.
Also, please don't say the word "mods" because I have no idea what you are talking about and I don't want to misguide anyone.............................. |

WOW, I think this is the first time I have commented on a Jeff Berlin thread, but I will say that if I did not know better, I would think the OP was someone who stole his I.D and used it here.
Those are strong in your face comments and I suspect this thread will be closed before I get back from picking up my girl from school.
As for my personal opinon of You, I have nothing but respect for what you have accomplished as a musician. Hope you can stick around for a while.

Jeff, what are they talking about? I'd love to hear about it! | I have a narrow-road-to-musical-growth philosophy. I don't believe that people will improve in music by paying for lessons or attending musical events where music isn't the 100% center of the work that one has paid to learn. Many feel that there are lots of different roads to musical improvement. I don't! |

Rodney is one of my faves!

Is there more than just simply hard work and I guess self realization?
And yes, I'm seriously interested in hearing what you have to say.
Thanks!

Rodney is one of my faves! | I LOVE that line. I even heard a line from Rodney that you probably never heard before (I know people on the "inside" who share things with me that don't get out in public).
Rodney once said that at his age, having a threesome was jerking off with two hands! That Rodney was a corker! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
