*Notes From A Pan-Dad* - "Why are they allowing this girl to mimic pan movements behind our glorious instrument? As I got closer I was faced with the realization that she was not mimicking but actually playing. And playing very well. I approached this 'girl from Mars with total amazement. Obviously she wasn't from Earth!" - You've Come A Long Way... Baby!
