    “If you aren’t making mistakes you aren’t practicing “. -JW. If this is true I practice every time I play.
    Excellent interview.

    What a great transition to get him talking about electric guitars. I think it's a mark of a well-rounded interview to not just talk about bluegrass centric topics but to explore a musicians full interests. It really makes for a complete interview and for a more complete profile of them Andy is a great interviewer to get that information. I found it to be fascinating

    Many thanks to the Lessons with Marcel team for this excellent interview. Jake made me think about my playing in a different, better, way. I don’t have to think of my sour notes as necessarily wrong but just need to bring them back out of the weeds and keep moving. Both Andy and Jake are masterful musicians. Thanks for the great content.

    Of course, Tony was a favorite. I play by ear, self taught. I listen to Jake and think about busting my guitar. He's such a great person and musician. Complimentary of many people. I'm not past learning, but the theory stuff is past me. Thanks for this wonderful interview with one of today's best guitarist.

    His no-wrong-notes philosophy reminds me of Victor Wooten & Jimi Hendrix, Victor Wooten's whole thing is "no note is wrong you just played it poorly", and Jimi's was "you're always a half-step away from the note you should've hit, which is easily solved with a string bend" either way you can't hit a wrong note of you adjust your thinking & approach.
