    Who knew? Just don't look.

    I wish I had started not looking a lot earlier. It's so much better to learn the correct way than to try and relearn it. I'll rehash what the other guys said; nice work.

    Friendly reminder about staying loose

    So I was playing earlier today and becoming very frustrated about my left hand speed. You know how it is, mental temper tantrum and all that. "Why can't I get faster?" But I had an epiphany. It was more of a physical epiphany than anything but I realized I was fretting my notes with much...

    Sacked the lead guitarist 2 days before a gig ...

    Aye this writing is hilarious. Good work man, I just had a crap evening but you made it better. Become that guy, it's definitely possible!

    Guitarists who take all the cool parts! GRRR!!!

    I'm thinking bail? Take the rhythm guitarist and drummer with you, you seem smarter and cooler.

    idk men i'd say this is a battle worth fighting. OP thinks that the riff sounds better on the bass. He thinks the rhythm guitarist won't be able to play it and sing well (which is huge). It's early in the relationship from what I understand. This is the best and only time to demand the terms...

    Have BL's or guitarists ever caught their bassists talking about them here?

    i've been guilty about doing this to actors/movie directors. yeah it makes people laugh but could i really say it to their face? it also depends on whether or not someone has a sense of humor. people have poked fun at me and i have had many good laughs on flaws that really are true.

    Learning sight-reading with a piano?

    Went to the House Of Guitars today and got the Hal Leonard bass method and Piano Adventures by Nancy and Randoll Faber. When in doubt, do 15 minutes of both I guess?

    The obsession with distortion

    Yo I dig this band actually lol this is sick. I love how fusion songs transform from one thing to another so well lol. A riff you hear 2 minutes ago feels like ancient history to what you're listening to 2 minutes later.

    Am I the best? Is anyone?

    My man, you are the best. Ever. Period. No discussion afterwards is necessary. LOL. It's all a game, have fun with it. Don't take it seriously.

    All of a sudden we are REALLY in demand...

    More demand for keys here in Rochester then it seems like Drums have a slight edge over bass.

    Breaking ALL the rules.....

    When I saw Primus in Rochester a few years ago he flubbed the beginning of Over the Electric Grapevine twice before he got it.
