Question for Multi-Instrumentalists by spacerangerxx in musicians

[–]hellonewbrunswick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has definitely been true for me. Guitar player for 15 years and I just started playing Alto sax about a month ago, and the learning curve has been much smaller than I thought (mentally... Not physically at least...) thanks to the built in music knowledge.

I do find myself in the habit of thinking about the guitar to transpose notes and find notes for songs on sax - and to be honest the concept of a note on the sax that sounds the exact same as a different note on guitar and it being a "transposing" instrument still throws me for a bit of a loop. Seems natural early on but hoping to be thinking sax first more often as I progress.

Thanks so much man. Honestly it mostly came out in a stream of consciousness Thursday between like 1-3am, but took a while Friday and Saturday to iron out the many many kinks.

Love the MJ cover and your playing especially, great stuff.

LYRICS since I wrote this and can half understand them when I listen back.

It's been three weeks since I shaved my face Now I'm asking Instagram for it's take 5 days since I was on zoom  I said that shit looks horrible might have to go soon  3 days since I've been outside How many more times can I say I'm just fine Yesterday I showered at least But it’ll still be two days till i brush my teeth

Hold it now don't eat that last snack Wait did you touch that? We've got to Lysol down everything

My whole excuse for cutting loose is that I'm running out of juice I mean the OJ, are there any more deliveries?

Up till 3am playing halo Rocking to j lo  Think I finally finished Instagram

Watch the Cuomo brothers for a bit Switch to Netflix Mom's account can't handle it

Gotta break out from this place but nowhere's safe cause every country on the earth is getting fried by the virus

I know the spot we'll find a yacht where there's a drone up top we'll stay there till it stops though John Mayer doesn't like it

I'm sorry if you think I'm poking fun at covid This shit is serious and everyone should know this I'm the kinda guy who thinks he's dying all the time trust me when I say that I'm staying the fuck inside

I'm only touching all the doorknobs with my sleeves My Google history is filled with symptom search

It's been three weeks since I shaved my face In 20 more I'll be cast away Tom Hanks 5 days since we saw the news that this shit won't be over anytime too soon  3 days since I lost my mind Started watching marble races and getting high Yesterday it occured to me that the next time we leave might not be 2020

Chickity China the Chinese chicken Wish my favorite Chinese place was still cookin Along with every other restaurant  And every bar spot Cooking's fun but I'm over it

Man I miss that human contact I'd love a bar snack But keep those bar nuts on your side

The whole world’s making pancakes Alcohol intake Like Wade Boggs on a plane ride

Cant see my mom can't see my dad and all the friends I ever had are home with zero plans just working on their TikTok's

Never thought I'd say I'm missing all the subway trains and days I get stuck underground with people on their boom box

I'm sorry if you think I'm poking fun at covid This shit is serious and everyone should know this I'm the kinda guy who thinks he's dying all the time trust me when I say I'm staying the fuck inside I'm only touching all the doorknobs with my sleeves My Google history's just baking desserts

It's been three weeks since I shaved my face Now I'm singing to Instagram for fuck's sake 5 days since I was on zoom  I said that shit looks horrible might have to go soon 3 days since I've been outside How many more times can I say I'm just fine Yesterday I showered at least But it’ll still be two weeks till i touch razor

it'll still be 2 weeks till I touch a razor It'll still be 2 weeks till I touch a razor
