my favorite faint praise comment is the famous Buddy Emmons quote where he says to a steel player coming off the stage "I really appreciate what you are trying to do up there."
I hadn't been able to think of one I'd had.... until yesterday! We led off our 4th set with an original that I wrote (and sang, which is pretty scary) it is a swing tune called "tastes like chicken" anyway, the place came alive and we got everyone dancing and some singing along and we extended the solos and so at the end of the song, the fiddle player mentions that it is an original... at the break I had two different people come up and say 'heck, you made that up? it sounded like a song someone good woulda written' (or words to that effect.)
The good news is the boys said I could bring another original song to the band... watch out!
