M: Well, I dont know. But your idea sounds fun to me.

M: But I told you I havent practised for a long time. I dont know if I remember any of the songs I used to play. Even if I did remember the old songs, I still probably dont know the songs you are going to want me to play.
W: Dont worry about it. I just thought Id ask you to try and join us sometime when we were practising. Well be practising for a few months before we give performances. And even if we do start playing concerts, it wont be that serious.
