To this day, I don't think I've seen the music! ;-)

Nothing worse than having to do the solo bit for the band and the pipes are not in tune or the hi-A D or F are out!

Oh man, you hit a nerve!!!! Been there, done that! What's the worst, is you don't ever get a chance to tweek your drones before you play, solo!!! Last time I did it, I decided that I'm just going to stand there, and tweek my drones before I do the solo bit........ next time. And mannnnnnn, I get tired of playing it.

Once, I did the solo bit, only I played "my version" rather than the bands!!! Hehe, you should have seen the hairy eyeballs I got accross the circle. "What the heck is HE playing????" Pretty good humour.

Cheers,
Scot.
