I've been gigging quite a bit more than normal lately, and receiving requests for session work. I know I can play pretty good when I have time to prepare, but at the end of the day, deep down, I know I'm not much more than a noodling hack. Every once in a great while, I feel like I'm dialed in, but then I hear things like this... http://youtu.be/Hoa1kmO9Y-E The Ox's isolated track of "Won't Get Fooled Again" Wow! I SUCK!! lol
Well look at the bright side...one of you is still alive. If you get gigs and sessions, there must be a reason for it. Just do what you do and the universe unfolds as it should.
If it makes you feel any better I can bet almost none of us can sound/play like that. Everybody except Pino & JPJ sucks compared to that.
