No need to apologize. I'll be the first to OWN my lack of proficiency (and
sheer fear of doing solo performances). I was once REALLY good at what I do.
But having spent the better part of this millennium NOT in bands, I lost my
groove/incentive/agility.
Not so at IPO Toronto...where I've been rehearsing with several
configurations of bands to make sure we're plenty ready (and not embarass
ourselves).
