In our weekly concert practice session this week, one band could not
play because of a last minute emergency, so we filled the time by
having the Robe trippers
report on what they learned. They said all the expected things,
emphasising the teamwork required, the sheer effort of three setups and
breakdowns in two days, the stamina required to perform so much music,
the shared intimacy that road trips engender. if you don't murder your
companions with an axe, you find yourself in a loving relationship with
your confederates that lasts a lifetime.
Some had also said privately to Tony, and some to me, how much they
appreciated playing with me, because they've never really heard me play
before. I think I was a bit of a surprise. The boring old fart
arranging teacher plays like an animal!
