Look Over There

Where?

There have been a couple of times where I’ve been playing with a band, and one guy in the band looks at another and says, “the keyboards aren’t right.”

What’s up with that? The keyboards are fine, it’s the guy playing them that’s not right. (As they say in racing, it’s the nut behind the wheel.)

Also, don’t look at another guy in the band and say my part is not right, look at me and say it. I get it if they look at the other guy and say, “is what he’s playing right?” But otherwise talk to me and let’s work it out. As an adult, you should be able to find a way to say it that’s polite and clear, and not make it seem like it’s a life or death deal. We will save that for your screw ups.
