Embodied in Love and Shadow
What is it about jazz, man? In Jazz Lab class I can hardly stand the music Mr. Silverbook gives us (though Autumn Leaves isn't so bad), but then when I go to my guitar lessons, the music my teacher usually gives me is very jazz oriented, but it's infinite cooler and more fun to play. I have to learn to clutch on a few progressions for next week, but it shouldn't be too bad. It's more bluesy sounding, than jazzy, but the blues are so god damn cool.

Chances are that meant absolutely nothing to you, but once again, if it did, you are one cool cat.
I'm definitley still not out of my Coheed and Cambria/The Mars Volta state of mind. Someone give me some new music to listen to...but these guys are just amazing, it will take a lot to pry me away from them. On a side note, I currently have 12 pictures of John Petrucci hanging on my wall. He gave them all to me, which freaking rules. I also have five more, one of which is signed.
Ah, my soloing possibilities just increased about five times tonight, as I learned a very valuable lesson. Never did anybody bother to tell me that you could play a minor pentatonic over a seven chord on the fifth of the chord, the fifth of tha chord, the fifth of that chord, the fifth of that chord, and the fifth after that. Confusing? Yes. Useful? Yes, as well.
It gives the dominate seventh tones, plus the nine, sometimes the eleventh, and sometimes the thirteenth.
Mark these words: One day this chalk outline will circle this city. Was he robbed of the asphalt that cushioned his face?
Why can't there be an emocore band class at Sherwood? And they could make it a gym credit, because I need one.
