Ben 15 Sep (morning close up)


Ben 15 Sep (morning close up), originally uploaded by filmlab.

Years ago, a musician taught me something profound. He asked "What is the difference between a professional and an amateur musician?"

I replied, "The length of their hair?'

He said, "An amercher practices till he gets it right. But a professional, he practices till he never gets it wrong."

That's when I knew I didn't have it in me to master the bass drum.
