You can practice 24 hours a day but nothing replaces 1 hour on stage with your friends.

We're an unstoppable gang! The sideways glances. The guitar neck raised to signal a change. Dropping a drum stick. Dropping a pick. You kick your drink over again. I still need to turn down? Who starts this one? The drummer and the bass player are so tight I'd pay just to see them play without the rest of us. At least we nailed the ending. Don't forget to grab your mic. Who's guitar stand is this? "Killer set!" "Thanks!" (In the first chorus of the 5ths song I screwed up the change! I don't deserve to play with these amazing musicians)

God, I miss this.

It worries me that kids are missing out on the good times right now.
