I realize the benefits of improvisation, and it does help me be able to play with anyone anywhere but sometimes...you just want things to sound the same when you play them...ya know?

I think that the main reason that we never play the songs the same way twice is that it all depends on how the singers are feeling or what key that they want to sing in that particular morning...lol. Everyone has to adjust to them.
