1. Theory<\/strong> <\/span>has nothing to do with Yiddishe Cup.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 Yiddishe Cup does not play it safe. We take chances and, yes, we occasionally screw up. Do you know how hard it is to make semi-decent music?<\/p>\n

3. Musicians need encouragement, not criticism.<\/p>\n

4. We don’t<\/strong><\/span> use fake books.<\/p>\n

5. We listen, then lock in.<\/p>\n

6. Pyrotechnics are OK with us.<\/p>\n

8. Feelings<\/strong><\/span> are always appropriate. The down side is we often feel hurt and abused.<\/p>\n

9. We are chatty.<\/p>\n

10. Our X-axis is comedy; our Y, tragedy. Plot it.<\/p>\n
