One of the things that I most noticed about the camp was watching the students grow (including myself). Not just as bass players, but as people and musicians in general. Hopefully, one of the main things to take away from this experience for everyone is to listen. I have thought that I do a good job of that when I play, but now I realize how much more I need to listen and how much of a difference it makes when I do.
All of the students really formed a bond with each other as well. More than just being in the same place for a week, I found that we each opened up to each other quite a bit, sharing not only the details of our lives but our inner thoughts and feelings. I'm not the kind of person who is open and sharing by any stretch of the imagination, so if I'm doing that, then you know that this is not the normal, everyday ordinary experience.
