Sounds Like: ...."at the time we started,we were inspired by the excitement of the beatles,the power of the who,and the songwriting of the kinks..so in our minds we'll never be half that good..but half that good is GOOD..we did it long enough that we became that...

when trying to press those first notes to "green onions" on my $25 guitar in 64,someone had said,"someday you'll stand on the planks at the cavern,or where jimi stood at the marquee,or the many rock festivals,and 40 years later you'll play the world, singing songs you wrote",i'd say you're dreaming,but bring it on..."
