In Chicago I was fortunate enough to get my wish and be the weakest player on a very strong team. I learned a hell of a lot from it, but I doubt my teammates learned all that much from me.

My question to you, my dear mr. goldfish, is this: you can point the above out all you want, but the tables got turned on you eventually. after your whole experience at IO was done, you came out to New York and started fresh at UCB, right with level 1. How did that impact you as an improviser?

i should point out that i worked with the 'fish during level 1, and learned a lot from watching and working with him, although i didn't really become conscious of his experience until much later...

Is it good to play with people a lot more or less experienced than you? So long as you have a choice sure. In situations like a jam or a class it's great. However if you have no choice and must play with people who are significantly more or less experienced than you, it can be trying (i.e intimidating or frustrating) to both types of players.

Experience isn't nearly as important as chemistry though.

Indeed. Any witnesses to the swing baby night when a guy I invited up (a poet, he said) pointed at me and just kept ranting: "I jerked off to your mother's cunt" over and over?

Luckily Rog was backstage and came out with a guitar and turned the refrain into a love song. But really, a girl can only take so much.
