The grammy award musician asked me to play something on the CBC grand piano, he reminded me of a pool shark, I recognize the tone or other non verbal clues. So what he got was something slow, sans flash and he was disappointed, could see it in how he looked mostly at his watch. But other musicians, later, fell hook, line and sinker and he complained about how inaccurate they were or how to do things right – meaning his way. He thrives on bossing and puncturing.
When you get conned, usually there is a moment where you thought you were gaining something. Maybe self flattery is the downfall, I’m so smart I see where the pea is hidden among the three shells and I will make easy money, but as soon as you are congratulating yourself an alarm bell should go off, you have turned into a football. You have positioned yourself in a way that certain persons can punt you across the field, easy.
