[QUOTE=Ned]Ah, I'd overlooked the phrase "as you write on here". This is hilarious. Sorry, it's all off the top of me 'ead--otherwise I'd have checked up on Ellington's and Basie's background. Solipsist projection is the only explanation I can come up with (off the top of me 'ead) for "as you write on here"--bearing in mind especially that I'm addressing someone who claims to have a graduate degree in music from a reputable institution (whatever it may be) and doesn't even know what the **** an augmented second is.[/QUOTE]
Do you think I truly care?

Ned - honest to God: I can tell from the venom dripping from your brain cells: you wish you had my life. You really do. I believe in fostering a caring and positive community and you, in your jealousy and bitterness, hide behind your computer to try and drag the world down to your base level.

Scales are something I no longer care about - seeing as Ive graduated from some rather respected insitutions with degrees. :lol: Who, but unestablished wannabe musicians care about scales? Whilst I love them, theyre so ingrained that is not longer matters. Get to that point honey.
If I get tiny insignificant things wrong, it doesnt matter to me because its all about the bigger picture.

And so far - I appear to be the only female taking you on.
I already know how ugly you are - youve proven it with your bitter and sorry attitude. :lol:
