Everything annoyed me today. Or more specifically, every family member within breathing space.
our blood pumps at 140 bpm we have to get it out somewhereWhy do drummers insist on blasting away on drums while the bassist and the guitarist tune up or set up?
I've been patient with my drummer, but it's now to the point I'm ready to start hurling water bottles at him to get him to stop. Do drummers honestly not know what restraint is?
It's just annoying, because what he wanted was someone to tell him where to put his fingers, but he had all of the knowledge already, he was refusing to apply it. When I pointed that out to him, and gave him what he needed, he called me annoying.Many famous guitar players can't even read notes. They play music while using their ears and of course having musical talents. Some people act like they know how to learn playing musical instruments and won't take any advice from someone who play musical instruments for years. And ears are beyond important. Not all written stuff is true to the songs. I always listen to music with my ears very carefully before playing although I can read music. Listening is really the true key. Well you tried giving them advice, they refused so too bad for them if they fail
He's just lazy and expect others to give him all the answers. That's definitely not working or helping him. That's someone who never learnIt's just annoying, because what he wanted was someone to tell him where to put his fingers, but he had all of the knowledge already, he was refusing to apply it.

It's like learning math, why would a math teacher just give you the answer? That's not doing math.
Same thing here. If I give someone the answer, they really aren't learning anything that's musically valuable, or something they can apply to their own music, or songs they like.
Sure, learning scales is important, but the real important thing is the sound and harmony of them, because scales up and down in a vacuum is largely more of an academic thing than it is a musical thing.
