Would you like to play at the Grammys?

Josh Shpak is playing at the Grammy Awards this year, and he is in his high school jazz band just like you.  Here is his audition video for the Grammy band.  Pretty cool, eh?  I love his flow of ideas, and how he makes the most of every phrase.  He's got that Lee Morgan-esque punchy articulation when he wants to pop it in there, and best of all, he is interactive with the rhythm section.  He's listening to them, they are listening to him, and they are feeding off of eachother.  You can do this!  It just takes a lot of practice, a lot of experimentation, and group of friends who are as excited about making music as you are.
