there has been alot of comment about ...can i become a professional....the answer is no one knows....raw talent and development of this talent to the max helps, but is not the end all or be all....the required personality to do anything professionally (flexibility, ability to be a team or independent player as required, dedication to one's craft, demand for highest standards under all circumstances) helps, but isn't enough...good health and physical prowess (tounging at mm=240 at age 70) is nice to have, but....luck and being in the right place at the right time is good....support from loved ones is very important....

if all of these things are present and converging on you, can you be a professional?...maybe...if you're lacking in any area, will it kill your chances....don't know...

concentrate more on being the best musician you can and always improving....see wher the chips fall, and get on with your life when they suggest the next move...
