Says who? You?

If it [U]were [/U] true, then the polls wouldn't look they do.

Speaking of which, lets look at the [U]polls[/U]
7 people say you need a great technique to be great
5 people say you don't.

If this were a presidental election and the state wasn't Florida where the states are counting ballots, then you would be [U]wrong[/U]. And if you say that the polls don't matter, then why did you have a poll? Face it, you won't make it to the big stage if you can't play consistently well and clean (which is the essential part of good technique). I never thought I'd see musicians who didn't think a great technique was important...Takes all kinds.


Still the sympathetic softie
