do you think the average git player can understand this in , let s say , 136 years,?

[VinniePaah]

Oh, my, his pinky is the size of my middle finger. I should probably play uke instead of guitar...

My brain is about to explode.

Really appreciate how this has been thoroughly dissected and explained. This is a video to view multiple times. There is so much to gain here.

@margovallen bottom line: go fuck yourself

[qwert11]

@margovallen i think i got my point across there inbetween all the "fucks", but who cares. you're not going to read that. you're not going to take anything i wrote into consideration. you're going to say "Ha, it's pathetic when 12-year old trolls who don't know anything about the blues try to tell me about the blues. I've probably been playing since before you were born. ;-)" then you'll flag all my comments for spam or something. you'll keep being willfully ignorant until the day you die

[qwert11]

@margovallen and who the fuck says blues shouldn't be complicated? who are you? what's your operating number? we're sending a squad up because we detect you're FULL OF SHIT. i find it pretty fucking stupid that people like you would try to impose restrictions on a genre that's all about playing what you want. why would you disrespect a guy who knows more than the 5 minor pentatonic positions? it's ridiculous, ri-goddamn-diculous. this guy is a good player, he knows his shit and deserves respect

[qwert11]

@margovallen it's possible to indoctrinate certain rules of theory into your head through listening and playing, but when you go to play, you're applying it whether you know it or not. so ultimately it doesn't matter if you know the rules or not. if you know theory, then you know what you're doing and you know exactly what kind of sound you want and how to make it. i'd assume that would help with playing from "your heart" but i guess you think otherwise.

[qwert11]

@margovallen that's not to say emotion can't exist in music, because it certainly can and does. but it's not because of some magical spirit located deep within your heart waiting to be unlocked by the passionate twang of a telecaster deep within in a smoky bar in memphis, it's because of how you apply the theory. things such as chord progressions, harmonies, cadences, these are all tools at the musician's disposal. much like different brushes and colors are available to a painter.

[qwert11]

@margovallen don't even try to give me that shit about playing from "the heart" because it's all a bunch of fucking shit and everyone with half an ounce of sense in their brains knows it. emotional impact in music is all about the chord progression and the way it acts with the melody. don't believe me? take your favorite "emotional" solo and superimpose it onto an entirely different chord progression. suddenly it doesn't sound so fucking emotional does it?

[qwert11]

@margovallen there is absolutely nothing wrong with knowing how music works, and if you don't think so, you're probably a dumbass. it's like saying everyone should be illiterate because true stories come from DA SOUL. it's horse-shit, complete and utter horse-shit. oh look, now i'm writing a long post attacking you; i guess i'm just that pissed off. well hang on tight, fuck-o, you're coming along for the ride.

[qwert11]

@margovallen you know, i was going to write up a huge crazy post attacking you, but fuck it. you won't read it. you won't listen. why do i even bother? you fucking idiots who get offended by the mere concept of people actually knowing what the fuck they're doing. newsflash: composers experiment in breaking music theory all the time, probably more than most blues musicians do. here's the catch: they know how to break those rules, because they know what the rules are.

[qwert11]

@margovallen oh shut the fuck up with your willfully ignorant spirituality bullshit. was hendrix complicating the blues when he started using crazy effects?

[VinniePaah]

He looks like a very capable player of very high class. Definitely a gifted musicain at least from the technical point of view. Flying fingers. Making it look so deceptively easy. And he knows what he plays on top of all that!

Most will only dream to achieve that level of dexterity and precision and will cry in frustration.
