Members elctmist Posted June 17, 2005 Members Share Posted June 17, 2005 Originally posted by jdwinger nope, that's the FIRST step we just have to go back and clean that up I would never say that people have to know scales or chords or how to read music. I know too many people that are great players that can't read a note.Still it is helpful if you're stepping out of a band situation, playing improv, or that kind of stuff.DJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members elctmist Posted June 17, 2005 Members Share Posted June 17, 2005 Originally posted by jdwinger you don't HAVE to know anything in particular to play, of course you don't need all 10 fingers to play well either (plenty of those around) but it can sure help - it can just make you a more flexible musician it's not a "have to" situation - it can be one hell of a time saver The funny thing is, a player will tend build up *A* music theory just by virtue of paying around and listening to music (our perceptions actually get altered by what we hear ) They will learn that some things fit together this way, other things fit together that way Later on, they may find that there are common names attached to it (oh, those notes I like together..play these.skip that...is called by some a "major" scale) and when you get stuck or are playing something new or just need to make a guess - you've got some tools to do it with Yeah, I'm always happy that I went to a UK school back when they made you learn music, even if they didn't teach you any of what I really wanted to play. Shame they didn't make me learn to play piano as well, I took clarinet and classical guitar and can't play either worth a dime.DJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all in tab, and its great. Plus, you have a Jazzmaster and a Twin Reverb, which are arguably designed to make that twangy reverb sound.DJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members elctmist Posted June 17, 2005 Members Share Posted June 17, 2005 Originally posted by jdwinger hey, clarinet is a fine instrument...it just isn't for me (or you it sound like my brotha) i doubt i could play it at all now... my lips probably gone, haven't picked one up in years.
