[QUOTE=BenJammin;14356019]La National, down on East St. Catharines.[/QUOTE]

Ok, I know some people who have played there, I, on the other hand, haven't because my band hasn't written any originals.

ben stop, im getting excited:evil:

[QUOTE=Brandon_S;14356023]That should get you banned,that is to beautiful to be on here. Funny,I use to hate pickup covers like those.,now I love them,I think that would be nice with a Black Headstock for some reason.[/QUOTE]

A headstock to match the top wood would be better, imo. I like pickup covers that are either the same as the fretboard wood or the top wood. Depends on the bass.

Ya and Single Player is hard, it took my friend a whole summer to get to level 30 not online, and it took my brother too weeks to get to level 86 online.

I love his tone.

Why do I suck so much at reading notes? :(

It is, new idea for me too, capo on bass...never tried it.

Ting 03-11-2007 07:51 PM

Bass clef im assuming?

[QUOTE=User Name;14356063]Why do I suck so much at reading notes? :([/QUOTE]

It's easier when you read notes on another instrument too.

It is true,like I said it all boils down to personal opinion.

User Name 03-11-2007 07:52 PM

Yeah.

I have to keep telling myself that F is actually A.



Edit: Wrong, Trevo. I play trumpet, the bass clef pisses me off to no end.

SlincoJ 03-11-2007 07:52 PM

I still suck at reading the bass clef,playing clarinet has poisoned me.

Trevo 03-11-2007 07:52 PM

Haha, I play trombone so I find reading bass really easy.

Thonk 03-11-2007 07:53 PM

I suck at reading both. :\

My treble clef reading is getting better thanks to my guitar class in school, though.

BenJammin 03-11-2007 07:53 PM

[QUOTE=Brandon_S;14356084]It is true,like I said it all boils down to personal opinion.[/QUOTE]

Well, obviously. My custom will have a matching headstop, and pup covers made from the same wood as the fretboard. So, yeah. :p To each their own.

Trevo 03-11-2007 07:54 PM

Hey Thonk, I've passed you...

I never actually learned how to read bass cleff. I have to transpose by sight.

User Name 03-11-2007 07:54 PM

Should I switch to trumpet from bass in my Jazz Studies class? It would be easier to bring a trumpet back and forth daily and I'd probably look less like a no-talent *** clown who can't read notes.

I play trombone=a lot easier

Brandon_S 03-11-2007 07:56 PM

I played Trumpet in Music Class,and Bass in Concert Band althrough out middle school (not like there was many complicated peices) but,I got used to it and now I don't find it confuseing and a weird switch.

SlincoJ 03-11-2007 07:56 PM

[QUOTE=Trevo;14356094]Haha, I play trombone so I find reading bass really easy.[/QUOTE]

I have yet to meet a trombone player at my school who isn't useless.It's a sad thing.

I know how you feel...And it sucks, but keep at it.

User Name 03-11-2007 07:57 PM

It took me about 15 minutes just now to be able to do the intro to So What. I suck.


Edit: yeah Ting, I suppose I'll probably never learn if I don't stick with it here.

Trevo 03-11-2007 07:57 PM

[QUOTE=SlincoJ;14356134]I have yet to meet a trombone player at my school who isn't useless.It's a sad thing.[/QUOTE]

I'm not, I'm only in grade 9 and I'm 1 of 2 students in the Band with the grade 10 and 11.

Whatever works best for you,you may be able to learn faster too if you are looked upon to sight read,just start with simple key sigs,and simple short peices to get through and practice them dailey for a half hour minimum.

SlincoJ 03-11-2007 07:59 PM

[QUOTE=Left Shoe;14356136]uhhh...i dont think so, ive played clarinet for 7 years, bass for 6[/QUOTE]

Well that doesn't change the fact that being used to reading treble clef makes me slip up when reading in the bass clef.

BenJammin 03-11-2007 08:00 PM

I don't read music. Makes life easy. <_<

Thonk 03-11-2007 08:00 PM

Phil have you heard the new Dntel?

Life Is Full of Possibilities just came on and it reminded me.
