As requested! (with a twist, of course!) Details-- We'll tackle together several popular progressions and soloing approaches that can be taken. it'll run the gamut from blues, rock, some basic jazz, and heck, even metal if you like. I'll come up with a comprehensive and general arrangement for the progressions.
- The session will be interactive. Everyone will have something to do while someone is soloing.
- After each participants turn, I'll provide positive feedback and suggestions for improvement (No American Idol bullsh#t!). You are free to bring your own progression and lay it out on the table. It'll have a jam-like atmosphere
- After my turn, participants have the liberty of quizzing me on the things I did, hence, my solos may be shorter for memory's sake!
- I will be paying extra focus on improv, rhythm and harmony throughout. As the folks who have attended the clinic know, I am straight to the point with the stuff and will spill the beans. I am at your total disposal during the session.
- Based on the participants, I'm sure every session will be different.
- And just as importantly, it'll be fun and educational
Minimum Requirements-- Must be able to count up to 4, and spell from A to G#
heheheh
- your age doesn't matter!!!
- If you know your way around the pentatonic scale, you're good to go! it would help if you have basic knowledge of modes, or even the major scale, anyhow, well work something out
What to bring--Your own guitar of course!
- Your own practice amp would be preferred. but in extreme cases, i may be able to provide. please inform me beforehand (and for the others, keep your 4x12's at home! a 15 watter with an 8" speaker would even do nicely- it's not gonna be a tone party either so your rj hot cabs are welcome)
-An overdrive pedal would be good. We're gonna rock.
- A notepad for you to scribble stuff on, unless you possess mega-memory...
- Haven't made up my mind on recording it, I dont feel the need for having it so just this yet....
