Re: Mars Rover "Curiosity"
Had heard about this, but forgot. Thanks for the reminder. Kind of slow news days right now for MSL, so this will feed the "space jones". I'm watching the stuff on the regional winners, right now. So cool to see youngsters with such passion for something other than video games and social media. (Not that there's anything wrong with social media, being a part of one's life.)
Play like you've worked at it, and don't worry about sounding like your influences. You can't cheat on them, or your practice, anyway. If you've worked hard at your skill, your audience will know it.
