Is there truly anything more beautiful than a group of friends/musicians getting together and playing their individual magic together as one. How frigging cool is that! Always been my dream when I was in Amsterdam and watched with the crowd, a group of friends on a boat play Hotel California, and they also were wickedly good. Forty years later I can join these fellows on the boat and be part of that magic. Guitar was the best gift I ever gave myself. I humbly suggest you do the same.
