I can't believe I didn't see any posts about the date being 1-4-5 today. Well now it was yesterday, but you know what I mean.

But I only played along to some Tribal Tech earlier, so no, I didn't do that today - ooops... |

That's what happens at rehearsals of Under Arrest (my R&B / Blues band.)
Happy 1-4-5, everyone...

Today's date is 1-4-05 for those of you who count it that way. Celebrate it by playing a 12-bar blues!

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Adelaide, Australia | | I played 1-4-05 all day, but in the jazzy, modal way, so really it was
1 (sus4), 5+9, 7dim11 with a uniquely strange hendrix/satriani chordal mode playing in 12/8 over the drummer playing in 5/4.
Sounded a bit like Yes......
