Sailu

i see, do-ly noted and thanks again and woah lucky basterd! meeting steve vai~ he's awesome~!

well i'm not completely incompetent with my playing i do understand my instrument just no where near where i would like (in terms of knowledge its like i've been playing for 3-4 years....stuck in a box but i have talent for it and an ear for music.) i know what i am doing for the most part but not scales, theory, or more advanced chord forms/voicing's i do have theory books and chord books etc...i just can't really use the theory books cause there hella hard for a non what ever you wanna call it (theory understanding guitarist) its very hard for me to rap my head around that and don't get it at all.. I have my own songs written and such and know them inside and out with the chord knowledge i've had over the years bit by bit..so i guess what i'm trying to say is i'm my own musician first...and in that regard i lack a great many skills i should have by now....i try to learn and apply it but its hard lol i've never sat down with a formal teacher i'm all self taught so that is my problem i guess... but hey...thanks! a lot of great insight and sorry for my immure temper...

so i'm 24 and a pretty decent guitarist and had a talk with a couple of guys that looking to fill a guitarist spot in there band and went and had a meeting with them for like an hour talked and jammed on some little riffs and such and then went our separate ways to wait and hear back from them so earlier this morning i texted the guy's and they where like "well sorry your not what we are looking for, hope everything goes well with trying to find your own band mates " and..thats it NO WHY OR HOW OR RHYME OR REASON! every FU*KING time i want i want to either BE part of a band OR start to form my own NOTHING EVER COMES OF IT and i'm just pissed as hell WHY CAN"T I GO ANYWHERE OR DO ANYTHING I WANT MUSICALLY IN A BAND like i want..... anyway i know no one is gonna read this and i really don't care i just had to get this off my chest somehow... i guess i should just give up and sell all my **** (not going to but just saying) and just stop trying and caring I've been playing for 10 years but am good at what i do but outside of that i suck horribly (its like i have the mind of a child when i got and try out everything i have is lost in the moment and freeze and die) and i try and get better but just am to lazy to truly get better cause of i feel like **** after doing things like going and trying out and just getting nowhere...i didn't learn guitar properly, i didn't learn covers first... don't know scales or most chords blah blah blah....JUST FML Sailu....
