I enjoyed this. I wish he had gone into more detail about what he did to prevent/deal with his tendonitis. I've been having trouble with that off and on over the last few years.

I never knew JP had a tendinitis issue, that could have been disastrous, good thing he seemed to get it taken care of and under control.

Exactly. My guitarist has perfect pitch and I like to write in alternate tunings. As long as he tells his brain that the tuning is different, he's fine. I can imagine it being much harder on piano though.
