many years ago I had a lady come up to me and say “you know, if I practiced as much as you do, and played as long as you have, I’d be just as good as you”. I simply could not think of a response. And I never miss a chance to be extremely sarcastic if I get one. I never figured out if it was a compliment or a put-down, as her face was expressionless, so I simply said “Oh, okay” and walked away shaking my head. people are strange and in the world of music sometimes even stranger. js
