Starting a Band

lol as a classically trained musician (as in classical piano, trumpet, and french horn) i tend to like to learn a whole solo by someone else note for note

btu there is a LOT of fun to be had in improvising.


and what ur talking about there is relative pitch
the fact that ur developing it is really good for playing and comes in handy in almost all areas of music
and just because u're just figuring it out doesnt make you any less. every musician has to figure it out at some point if they wanna play. On top of that, it also means ur not tone deaf, which is also a plus.
 
i was just talking in terms of a general starting point. what ur talking about is what i'm trying to do right now, but you probably wanna start somewhere and have a point of focus as to what you try to learn. if you spread urself too thin too fast it'll take a lot longer to learn everything.
 
or learn beatles songs.
and van morrison songs.
as far as i can tell those are the BEST songs to start off with a group...because they're easy to simplify and still make sound good, they're acessable....or something along that spelling, and they're just plain fun. Use those songs to tighten up and ur good to go!
