Thread Name: spoons in sessions
Subject: RE: spoons in sessions
There are session wreckers everywhere, Flora. Most musicians are courteous and considerate, but there are those whose big egos override all other considerations. Get their feet under the table and you're stuffed for the night. There seems to be some kind of paradoxical rule whereby the least talented have the biggest egos. And Les, old chap. How many times do I have to say it. We always make welcome visiting musicians of good will. Always. We are a very nice bunch of blokes. I know it's inconvenient to your cause, as with John, but it happens to be the most important thing I've said and you are choosing to ignore it. A session with 40 people sounds absolutely horrible, but then again I haven't been to it and it ain't right for me to judge, is it! I won't be numero 41, I can tell you that much. No wonder they need dots and can't learn by ear!
