...there are so many things you do without thinking about them -- that you'll be a terrible teacher. How will you explain playing in tune? You do it, but you can't tell me how. What are you going to do when your band gets some technically difficult passage, just tell 'em to 'play it'? How will you explain hearing what you see? A performer never has to explain those things. And besides, you don't want to waste your time on teenagers. They are high maintenance, make stupid decisions and ruin their lives. And your failures will significantly out number your successes. Don't do education. Be a performer and get paid for what you can do.
