ThomBassmonkey Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 IMO you need a practical application of theory, but you don't need to know the theory it's self if that makes sense. I've always said that I learned theory then forgot it, which is true to an extent. My fingers probably know more theory than my brain does, it feels natural to play around scales and intervals, but I couldn't always explain why what I'm playing works. Learning the basics of things like scales, arpeggios and intervals is important though, just so you know where you're going instead of blindly following someone.

lowdown Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 [quote name='christhammer666' timestamp='1326474014' post='1497774'] even twats like me get given peoples time [/quote] You are not a twat - the fact that you have taken the time to think about 'Theory', elevates you above twat. Learn some theory and leave the rest of your band looking like twats.. Garry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
