I mean, I have moments of huge frustration because of my inability to express myself linguistically as clearly as I would like to.

creeps developed fast guitar intent laughable melodic parts style technique useful
My technique is laughable at times. I have developed a style of my own, I suppose, which creeps around. I don't have to have too much technique for it.

I wish Roger absolutely well. But I can't imagine doing more than a one-off with him and the other guys at this point. It's been such a joyful experience working with the team I have now; nothing could make me happier than the situation I'm in. I'm extremely lucky.
good piece work
I do really think it is about as good a piece of work as I have ever done.
