The Best It Could Be


I was relaxing in my Chinese bed just before shooting a promo video message for an upcoming festival

I was relaxing in my Chinese bed just before shooting a promo video message for an upcoming festival. I got a call from my doctor's office and I knew it was my post-op cancer results. I felt good but I was also mentally prepared for bad news. I nervously answered the phone. The nurse said to me, "Your blood work results came in and it was The Best It Could Be."

I thanked her and hung up the phone. Then, for some strange reason a crazy situation popped into my head. A few months ago we did a corporate gig in Switzerland, and the agents who'd booked us were preparing us for bad news. Before our show they told us not to take it personally because it's a very corporate Swiss crowd and they don't dance at these concerts.

I told the agents, "The music we play makes people dance!"

The video's sound perspective changes because my guitar tech is walking throughout the room. Our very corporate Swiss crowd was dancing - and that result was The Best It Could Be.

The music we play makes people dance!
