I used to play with a house band at a Hotel that played a different show every night. All sight reading, almost never anything more than a talk through. That was trial by fire. Made me a better man, but I think I stutter a little now.

Yeah, the best experiences I've ever had where when I was surrounded by players much better than me. You can't help but learn something.

Good point. You eventually make your way up to their level if you keep playing with them.

Yes, yes, Lee! That kind of situation always brings out the best in me...not because I want to "show my chops", but because I have to bring something more than normal to be on par with the others.

Humbling, challenging, and rewarding!
