"By 'on time' I mean 'be early,'" he said. "Make sure you're there for when you need to be � wait in your car, communicate, let them know ten minutes early that you'll be there in five minutes, and walk in five minutes later."

Thal added that by being prepared he means "knowing more than you need to." "If you're going to lay down guitar parts," he advised, "know the drum grooves and where all the accents and up-beats and fills and breaks are. Know the bass lines. When the bassist doesn't show and they freak out, you [can] say, 'I know the bass part. I can lay it down.'"

"[That continued] until my dear friend David Bowie got me out on the road for the Glass Spider tour and on his Never Let Me Down record, and reintroduced me as a guitar player around the world. I can never thank him enough for believing in me, and seeing past the image of the satin pants and big hair to the guitar player he first met when we played together in school.
