Jon, you were AWESOME! You made Simon Cowell smile. I'm so happy that it went so well for you. What an incredible experience.
Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Were you hella nervous?
Oddly, no! My usual MO is to get nervous RIGHT BEFORE I go onto a stage, but for whatever reason, I was pretty calm throughout. I think it helped that I honestly didn't expect to make it through!

Our wings are not tired.
It was thoroughly enjoyable. I think that being able to enjoy yourself with no expectations may be key to coming across so well.
Do we get to know what you are going to play next time? If not I will wait patiently. Kinda.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Jon, you rock! LITERALLY!

Jon, I remember seeing you at the DC F2F, playing the Theremin in your silver pleather suit. You do, indeed, rock.
