To be a professional tennis player you need to put in these sort of hours.
The ultimate guitar players can play every scale in the book.
A lot of the players are not involved with any NHL team, so to play and travel around with the Oldtimers' it's a kind of gift that the players really appreciate.
So if the players trust the coach, it's not a problem. If the players don't trust the coach, it is a problem, and vice versa.
Besides being a guitar player, I'm a big fan of the guitar. I love that damn instrument.
My wife is a classically trained piano player, and she also orchestrates.
