I don't agree that Clayton should be better than most of the musicians on this list. I think that's a slight to many of talented folks here. But I will say he should be significantly better than me. He's not. And I suck. -----Original Message----- From: audities-owner@smoe.org [mailto:audities-owner@smoe.org] On Behalf Of Jaimie Vernon Sent: Wednesday, November 28, 2007 3:47 PM To: audities@smoe.org Subject: Re: With Or Without 'Em At Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2007 15:33:26 -0500 > > Clayton has to be the luckiest guy in rock.

Maybe more and direct to the point is that I feel Clayton, who occupies a seat in one of the biggest bands in the world, should have a capacity and talent greater than my own. I'm not a braggart where performance is concerned (believe me, I've made my fare share of live flubs). But when I can play better than the guy who's making millions of dollars more than me per year I can't help but have disdain for his abilities. He should be a better player than most of the musicians on this list. And he's not even that.
