My wife Maureen discovered this thing and turned me on to it, my friend Richie Russo is also involved with them and said come on down and check it out. I expected kids to be OK, you want to be encouraging, like you said the kids who are actually playing instruments these days, it’s a miracle. I didn’t expect them to be this good”.
