      @@davidferrara1105 I'm jealous. What an experience that must have been. We don't have anyone like these men today. They played for the love of it. You can see it on their faces when they perform. Yes, they made careers at it and had to be businessmen, and that's fine, that's part of the job. But today it seems like people put the career first and the playing second. And the product isn't the same.
