1. Sound quality is imperative - it can make a really good performance really horrendous for the audience
2. Live is the true test of how good an act is. There's no true substitute to experiencing music live.
3. Letting yourself go into the music fully is a very powerfully liberating feeling for a person who thinks too much
4. Always sleep well the night before a festival because you'll tire yourself out dancing to the music.
5. In order to reach the highest levels possible, a positive and unpretentious energy is needed for a musician.
6. Any negativity saps an experience, even if it's in your head."

"Some things learned from Java Jazz Festival Day 2:
1. Audiences can kill the music majorly.
2. Sometimes the least expected places give you the best music.
3. Groove is the key to your soul
4. Dance through all music - you'll really know what music makes you move and what you are moving to.
5. Some shows are worth waiting for, ESPECIALLY RH Factor
6. Music can inspire you to get off your tired bones and just get out there to live life and enjoy
7. Fodder for compositions and arrangements!"

"Lessons learned from Java Jazz Festival Day 3:
1. Even if you're awesome, a so-so band will kill your music
2. Even if you suck, a great band will make you sound damn awesome
3. Musicians work incredibly hard to create a cogent setlist and practise really hard to get to where they are, do NOT think it is easy to reproduce what they do
4. The audience might not kill the music of a great band, but they still can kill your mood
5. The amount of work that goes into organising a festival AND livestream it AND be able to give quality that stuns people is incredible. Only the strongest can do it.
6. Anything is possible if you build it slowly. Just keep working."
