But if you have talent why deny it insted of celebate it? Renowned geniuses who say things like 'i can't play' most probably do so because they dont want to come across as egotists. I see nothing wrong with people who say they are good but the ones who say 'I'm the best'......well, we've been there before.....

Me? I can play, sure, but I'm always looking back at what i played and thinking 'I would change this that or the other' or thinking about how my technique went wrong in places. I find on any of the three instruments I play, my audience always admire me more than I admire myself.
