Mike Babyak<p>Back in for my second round of chemo. Doc said I was so far ahead of the norm in my response to the first round that he's confident two to three more rounds that I'll "never be bothered by this again." </p><p>Huge shoutout to the medical, nursing, and support staff here at Duke. Incredibly competent, professional, and supportive.

Vor 50 Jahren habe ich ihn zum ersten Mal live erlebt (in der Eremitage in Schwaz). Die Begeisterung hält bis heute an.</p>

Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>Postscript:</p><p>If you do start to feel some excitement about theory as your fingers get used to this stuff, find a graphic of the ‘circle of fifths’ and read it counterclockwise from G while you recall how the runs in the material are sequenced…</p><p>Pretty cool, huh?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>What’s fantastic about this approach is you don’t have to learn any theory. </p><p>The theory reveals itself as you play.</p><p>After which you’ll have a thirst for more. </p><p>Because it works.</p><p>It sounds great. </p><p>And you now own your whole guitar, frets 0-12 and beyond. </p><p>Merry Christmas!</p><p><a href="https://www.premierguitar.com/lessons/jazz/pat-metheny-practice-lesson" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">premierguitar.com/lessons/jazz</span><span class="invisible">/pat-metheny-practice-lesson</span></a></p><p>8/8</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>Just learn the three patterns from the TAB provided. </p><p>Get the G, C, F and Bb runs down at any comfortable speed. </p><p>Go one at a time, then practice fitting them together, then looping them. </p><p>You’re going to sound amazing in no time. </p><p>Then—and only then—read the item and do the suggested work to build in the remaining eight arpeggiated runs. </p><p>They all use one of the same three patterns.</p><p><a href="https://www.premierguitar.com/lessons/jazz/pat-metheny-practice-lesson" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">premierguitar.com/lessons/jazz</span><span class="invisible">/pat-metheny-practice-lesson</span></a></p><p>7/8</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>Now, here’s the payload. </p><p>Below is a link to an intriguing story about how jazz great Pat Metheny practices. </p><p>Again, do not tell yourself you can’t do this because Metheny’s name is attached to it—I’m shit, and if I can do it, so can you. </p><p>And ignore the ‘chops/theory intermediate’ BS.</p><p>It’s beginner. </p><p>You don’t even have to read the text. </p><p><a href="https://www.premierguitar.com/lessons/jazz/pat-metheny-practice-lesson" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">premierguitar.com/lessons/jazz</span><span class="invisible">/pat-metheny-practice-lesson</span></a></p><p>6/8</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>So, an arpeggio has fewer notes than the scale from which it is drawn.</p><p>It’s the same as any chord you might already know. </p><p>And it sounds beautiful because it’s harmonized.</p><p>Which is what music is all about, right?</p><p>Think of every arpeggio, simple as it is, like a barbershop quartet. </p><p>Or better. </p><p>5/8</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>Before we dive in, let’s defuse ‘arpeggio’ because it sounds like a such a massive theoretical mf’r. </p><p>Here we go, get ready…</p><p>An arpeggio is a chord. </p><p>That’s it. </p><p>Done. </p><p>The only reason it’s got a different name is you play it one note at a time.</p><p>You are now a music expert. </p><p>4/8</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>So what’s the trick?</p><p>Arpeggios. </p><p>Three of them, not five. </p><p>Fewer notes to learn. </p><p>So smaller and simpler than the CAGED scales. </p><p>Easy to play. </p><p>And fantastically rewarding. </p><p>3/8</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>Everyone wants to be able to play up the fretboard.</p><p>There’s some sweet stuff up there—we know cuz we’ve heard it. </p><p>But how to get there?</p><p>CAGED is a great way to go. To search &amp; learn = to never regret. </p><p>But, you can open up the fretboard and sound incredibly musical even before working on the five basic patterns of CAGED. </p><p>2/8</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>The world is crap, so here’s a gift for all the amateur guitarists out there, struggling, like me, to get to grips with the instrument.</p><p>Might as well practice and play while the house burns down, right?</p><p>First, the most important bit:</p><p>This is easy stuff, perfect for beginners, so don’t let Metheny’s name put you off—if I can do this, you can do this. </p><p>1/8</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/practise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>practise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a></p>
Kyle Memoir 🍉<p>The world is grim.</p><p>I thought I’d post a about a hobby of mine for change: amateur music done rather poorly, but from which I draw much satisfaction all the same.</p><p>Because timing has long been my nemesis (the ADHD brain so often can’t help itself leaping ahead of the beat to the next phrase), I decided to take up bass a while back to improve my guitar playing.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/jazz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jazz</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/bass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bass</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/metheny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metheny</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/learning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>learning</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/adhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adhd</span></a></p><p>1/5</p>
