When someone comes backstage after a gig to say "your show was so  
impressing" my immediate reaction is distrust. But I try to not to  
show this reaction, because it may very well be that this person does  
really feel impressed. And I just don't know how to handle that,  
because according to my understanding there must be something wrong  
with a person that experiences music as "being impressed". I feel  
sorry for him and at the same time I feel alienated because I really  
can't share his feelings. I think the healthy reaction to hearing  
good music being performed would be to simply get happy and enjoy  
oneself in that moment. And if anything needs to be said to the  
player after a concert one could just thank him/her for providing the  
setting for having such a good time. Defining concerts as "difficult  
performances" just gives me the creeps....u-u-uh..... ;-)
