3/9 I am practicing about half an hour per day, which is barely enough to keep me in the Emerald league of Tonic. The more intense your practice, the vaster the amount of things you might also practice, that you should absolutely practice to make any meaningful progress. I have nobody fifty years younger than me to compare myself to, the result would likely be as humiliating as the hike into the Grand Canyon. Then again, the other night on Tonic, I heard someone who had started in their mid-sixties play with a gravity that only age can build. That is how I want to play.
