thanks guys! i think that is true, he is trying to sum up my capabilities, etc. the drive is not a problem, it is certainly there on my part! i would play further into the night if i didn't have to get up in the morning to earn a liiving, LOL.

Excited about tomorrow's lesson.....get some feedback from him.

the one thing i have a hard time with is learning to tap my foot while i play. i have no problem tapping my foot to music, and keeping the rhythm, but it is hard to tap your foot with no other instruments to go by....
