man. we rehearsed those two songs for 90 mins. and that was like an olympic workout. i can only imagine and appreciate max weinberg drumming for 4 hours a night for the last 40+ years. i remember that link i put up about avoiding your heros at all cost (well....you know who was on the show)---and true to form that's exactly what i did. but today DEADED all that. bruce truly lived up to all of the expectations i had for any god like figure in this world. he was engaging, hilarious, full of great stories, educational, informative....and generally it really seemed like he enjoyed playing with us. he made it pleasant and fun. and teaching us a thing or two about having fun with dynamics and volume. i know i say it EVERYTIME someone comes on @latenightjimmy, but i truly had the time of my life today.

i appreciate the love from this network. if you enjoyed what you saw tonight i beg you to continue to support the roots in the most effective way possible: please buy our albums. if you don't know where to start you can start here

we have 12 albums. all of which we bled and put the same painstaking scrutiny as if our life depended on it.

thank you!
