So, I'll come in and spend a week with the campers and we'll build a band and write songs and pull off an acoustic performance and meet with the celebrities who come in at the end of the week. They'll spend time with us and listen to our compositions, jam with us and then we'll all go out to dinner, take pictures and this and that. This time, I'm gonna be the special guest who comes in at the end, I'm not doing the counseling. So, I'm the guy who comes in at the end and critiques their playing, songwriting and their performance and jams along with them, takes pictures and so forth; it's a little different role for me than I'm used to doing but I've been involved with the camps for many years so..."
