We're doing better on my end of the country. Might have something to do with the overeagerness of the premier to slam the borders shut at the slightest provocation.

LoL steering the whole set away from the tempo XD Indirectly reminded me of one time where my guitar teacher for whatever reason had no junior bass players on the entire island and when I came back for a holiday he offered me free lessons if I would play in the concert with one of his junior groups (I was technically an adult but closer in age to these kids than the adults). I agreed and learned to play what I needed to play and after a few practises with the group it became apparent that the rhythm guitarist kind of lost concentration and wandered off doing his own thing. After a few reminders and a few more practises we eventually got to the concert date and we were up there playing away when...something sounded wrong. I looked at the drummer (whom I was following closely because I'm the bass player) and he looked at me, we were tuned fine, so we looked at the lead guitarist who was also looking at us in some confusion, all of us turned to glare at the rhythm guitarist who immediately sheepishly realised what was going on and quickly got back in time XD

I can actually imagine your excited face merrily banging away on drums XD
