I have a friend who is one of the best musicians I've ever seen. Can literally play anything. A true musical prodigy, has had no training whatsoever. I mean, the dude can touch ANYTHING and make it sound great. But he's too lazy to play live very often, too lazy to advertise himself, etc. It's really remarkable. His bands have played live with My Chemical Romance (?! Don't ask, it was the early days of MCR), Melt Banana, An Albatross, and a lot of other well-known bands... but he still has no inclination to do anything with his talent.. it's weird.
He was in a band with this other dude who is the best keyboard player I've EVER heard, in any band EVER. I mean, this guy.. wow. He joined the band Murder by Death and they did this huge tour and then this guy quit and now he's working on film soundtracks in Texas or something.
