Hasn't happened to me but I sure could use the extra practice time. Sounds like a cool thing though. Yeah, sleep practice would be the way to go.

No, man, that wasn't a dream. Haven't you seen the news?So Anyway, when I dream about playing the bass, I'm usually on a big stage. In my underwear.
Sometimes worse.

Well, I had to look that up. No, my mice were not nearly so entertaining. However, they presented us with a very unexpected finding. One that was completely opposite from what I, and everyone else in the field of type 2 diabetes, was predicting.So you are responsible for the mouse in "Pinky and the Brain?"
Dream again, slower, until you can dream at full tempo.what happens when you dream wrong and thus learn it wrong?
No, 90% of the time I’ve worked on it so hard I could actually play the gig in my sleep.I have a gig coming up tomorrow where I had three days to learn a set to play on DB. A couple are tricky funk tunes, the others are simpler and I just need to keep the arrangements in my head.
Anyway, last night while going in and out of sleep I found myself dreaming about them, seeing the fingerboard while hearing the bass part. Definitely a first for me.
Anybody else do this sort of practicing, whether sleeping or while awake?
