Advice from Tony Levin

Lot of vintage Tony in this concert

Pretty amazing that he'd only been playing Chapman Stick for two, maybe three years at the time of ^^^that concert!
I mean, it's not outlandishly great Stick playing -- Tony's certainly gotten much better on it over the years -- but the sheer audacity of appearing at such a high profile gig playing an instrument that you're still getting your chops together on is mind-boggling! Brave man.

He was a brave man who knew he was good. He still is too.:thumbsup:
