    Advice on lessons

    It really depends on your experience and what you hope to get out of the courses. When I was in college, I began writing MIDI guitar tabs on my computer during my freshman year, but I didn't play guitar and had zero music knowledge. I didn't even know what the words "scale" and "key" meant, but...

    Conspiracy Theories

    Obviously, conspiracy theorists are just Illuminati, Scientologists, Westboros, etc who are purposefully concocting schemes to draw attention away from themselves, enabling them to pull the strings while we're all too distracted by conspiracy theories to focus on what really matters.

    What are you up to as a musician?

    It's one of the better books that I've read. I'm interested in evolutionary musicology, so this book, along with another one called The Singing Neanderthals, was great, but the one I posted goes into a lot of detail that I think will be interesting to you specifically.

    What's the word for this?

    Greetings from six years in the future! I finally found it a year or two ago, but I had forgotten about this thread. The phrase I was searching for was "mook chivalry." It can also be called the one-at-a-time attack rule, but mook chivalry was the specific phrase that I was inquiring about...

    Experienced tabber needed!! TAIB Guitar solo

    It sounds like the solo is pretty straight forward from a theory perspective, meaning that it doesn't sound like they even leave the scale or change keys. I would try to tab it for you right now if I weren't a busy grad student, but maybe I can do it later tonight or tomorrow. The faster...
