  • Whether or not you can actually practice improvising
  • Thoughts around improvising that BLEW MY MIND and changed the way that I think about it
  • How to get stuff from your practice ACTUALLY into your playing
  • How scary it can be to show up to a gig as "you"
  • A SUPER unique conversation about the value and approach to transcribing
