What say you?

Eh....to a point.

I am my own worst critic, as you can probably imagine. Still, I know when I'm on & when I'm not, & when there's pure magic in the air & when I'm just going through the motions.

The only time I've ever been a little off in my assersions was when I was challenged by substances.

I expect too much from myself at my experience level.
I do ok for what we do as a band, outside that environment I,m just a beginner.
Perhaps one day I'll have the time to get some formal training.

I have never been happy with anything I have ever done. I always know I could have done better. I just finally give up in frustration and call it done for the moment, always planning to do it over again at a later date.

I used to be very critical of myself when I first started playing. It wasn't until the last five years or so that I started actually thinking I'm pretty good at this stuff. Now I don't judge myself at all. Instead I let the audience decide and as long as we're getting repeat business I guess that's good enough...
