Playing is more than listening--despite listening being as wonderful as it is. Playing is more--and it offers a different experience to listening, it's own frame of mind (I don't know if any of this makes any sense).
Listening is indeed a necessary but not sufficient skill. I value the ability to listen much more than the ability to pull shred licks, in a collaborator.
these are things we think we know
these are feelings we might even share
these are thoughts we hide from ourselves
these are secrets we cannot lay bare.
