The first time I ever set in with a band, I was lost as to what
to do. They were playing in keys that I never played in. I played in the
"normal" keys like C, Eb, F, G Ab, Bb but they played in E, A and D.

My gawd, Criss, you¹ve got to get away from those guitar bands (keys of E,
A, B and D) and start playing JAZZ in ³horn keys² like F, Bb, Eb, Ab, Db,
and sometimes G.
