    I can play a song from beginning to end using the fewest notes possible.

  4. Superpower: synesthesia

    Claim to Fame:

    Either playing bass on Alvin Dahn’s infamous recordings, or my cruise ship disaster gig story

  5. Alex

    Synesthesia, the ability to pick up a tune, and being able to play for a LONG time.

  6. 9.5 at the Epicenter

    I care not for fame.
    It can vanish in a flash.
    Want my thunder in your game?
