Re: Jam Sunday (57 replies, posted in Bands and artists)
Thanks Jim and TF!
This is a favorite band to see live. Every player is a shredder. They have a ton of good stuff too. Here's another jam of theirs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mskcDR2qJq8
Lots of people know Bruce Hornsby but not many know what a killer piano player he is, or how great his band is. I had an opportunity to meet him after a show and we talked music for 45 minutes. One of the kindest, most humble people you'd ever care to meet.

Re: Reading/Playing cut time (5 replies, posted in Music theory)
My pleasure. I'm pleased that it worked out!
Metronomes are magic. You should also try setting it to click once every other beat or once every four beats. Will help with your "internal metronome."

You should call his house and ask to speak to the cats and then not talk to him. Just to show him how it feels.

Re: Reading/Playing cut time (5 replies, posted in Music theory)
You need one that goes faster.
Instead of setting the metronome to click on every beat, set it four times as fast. It will be clicking four times per beat. That will help you with note placement since the note you're presently having trouble with releases between the beat and the "and."
Make sense?
On those four clicks you can place the following words for your counting:
Click 1 "One"
Click 2 "ee"
Click 3 "and"
Click 4 "uh"
Click 5 "two"
Click 6 "ee"
Click 7 "and"
Click 8 "uh"
And so on.
Might be easier to explain via Skype. Happy to help if needed!

Re: Reading/Playing cut time (5 replies, posted in Music theory)
Happy to help but first...questions!
Do you know about subdividing further between beats and their "ands" for example 1 e and uh 2 e and uh 3 e and uh 4 e and uh?
Also do you practice with a metronome?

Also if you have trouble keeping it in tune you might consider Sperzels or a quick look from a good guitar tech.

Re: Electric guitar plug-in tuner for an electric (9 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
I use a snark for acoustic shows. I find they get unreliable on electrics when there's tons of stage noise. I tune mid song and they just go crazy.
I used the Boss chromatic tuner for years but just switched to this Korg. Way easier to read and faster to respond IMO. I also prefer them in strobe tuner mode.

I used to gig in your area a lot. Was raised out there. You need to head to some blues open mics in the south side and NW Indiana. Loads of great keys and piano players.

Tedeschi Trucks Band. In my humble opinion, Derek Trucks is the best guitar player alive today. What do you think?
