Having had playing piano for >10 years and having a teacher that bitches over every little tiny thing, I have some contructive stuff :P seems that the timing is very unstable in some parts, though the dynamics were decent.
This is my comment, too. Especially when you have that repeated line in the right hand in the beginning. You need to make sure that you keep that consistent based on whatever tempo you're playing at. So even if you have a ritardando in there, you still need to keep consistency in the timing.
There's something about Tuesday...

Thanks. Again, this was all off the top of my head, so those pauses were me trying to think of ways to change things up (and failing miserably, save one notable occasion). When I revisit this, hopefully I'll actually have some idea of where to go with it.

I am great at improv. It's my best routine!
In other news, Frey continues kicking unprecedented levels of ass.

I suck at improv, but I think learning it would be awesome. Love the remix, didn't realize what it was until the second part. That made me laugh :P

I like really, really fast songs, and I'm running out of the hard ones. This is far simpler than I play, but it was fun to listen to! Plus, you have to get some credit on simplicity just because it was improv, and not prewritten.

Last time I actually wrote a song was in 3rd grade. It kinda sucked. The hard part is being able to transcribe the complex  parts of the song you're thinking of. (hmm...one more idea for my EEG machine :P)

For improv, that was pretty good!
I need to upload a vid of me playing sometime...
