About 20 years ago, I got to thinking about how much I missed playing music in the band (because adulthood sucks in that way). This started a whole journey of learning jazz piano as an adult and ultimately performing a set at Chicago's Jazz Showcase with a class I'd been taking.
Flash forward to this evening and I find myself watching my high school kid play on the stage of the Jazz Showcase with his high school jazz ensemble--bringing some kind of closure to a crazy 20 year adventure. Freaky.
