Feature Quote
We've had young people who, like I said, a lot of them show up that never touched an instrument. What is that? That's a drum kit. And then, all of a sudden, they find themselves as a drummer. Or we've had young people who are like I really don't want to be on stage, it just doesn't work for me. Well, they'll work behind the scenes or maybe they'll write something. But someone else within the group will say well, I'll step up and present your piece, I'll present your words. So there's a place for everyone in what we're doing.
