Quote of the Day: Charlie Parker
Playing a musical instrument is fun, but there is some work involved too. This quote demonstrates that you really can work on your music and have a great time with it, too.
Don’t wait until you’re on the bandstand (in the pit, etc.) to have fun, though. Give yourself permission to cut loose with your music every now and then, whatever that may mean to you personally. You’ll be glad you did, and so will your music. 
Keep playing,
Mark
“You’ve got to learn your instrument. Then, you practice, practice, practice. And then, when you finally get up there on the bandstand, forget all that and just wail.”
Charlie “Bird” Parker
Jazz saxophonist and composer
