Hi JesseJ!! Welcome to your Gab's Army thread!!
Could you please tell me a bit about you, your musical tastes, influences, strengths and weaknesses? I would need some videos of you playing rhythm and solo guitar, so please post your best material here. If you have some music or ideas of your own, also post them here. Also let me know how you think that I can help you and what are your expectations for our job. You can check the other Army's thread to discover the different modalities of this project. The principles of our Army are: + Improve your technique + Make music and solos + Have fun + Destroy the enemy (hahaha not realy just kidding... ) -------------------- My lessons

Well, this is the method that I use to analyze songs. I study lots of songs using this template and then compare all of them and try to create theories and conclusions about the tools more used in different styles/bands/songs that I like:
Song Analysis: Name of the song: Name of the band: Structure // What is happening? // Chords & Scales Structure: You will divide the tune in Intro - Riff - Verse - Prechorus- - Chorus - Solo - Part C and so... You can add the letters A, B, C to the sections when you find different ones in the same tune (Ex: Verse A, Verse B, Chorus, Solo A, Solo . what is happening?: Here you will describe each part. You can explain how is the part, if it has vocals, screams, melodies, harmonizations, how much is last, how many measures, etc. Every information that could be useful to understand the part. Chords & Scales: Here you will post the tonality, the chord progression and the scales used for the melodies and solos. -------------------- My lessons

Here is the order: Intro Verse Prechorus Chorus Intro Verse Prechorus Chorus Bridge Instrumental ( which is the intro part ) Chorus Bridge The intro is played 3 times it opens the song gets played again after the first chorus and gets played again after the bridge of the second chorus There are only 2 verse's the prechorus follows right after them and is also only played 2 times The Chorus is played 3 times and the last 2 times it is played there is something added to it you could call it a bridge or just an exstension of the chorus I'm not sure what it is actually called . I'm gone camping this weekend but I will be back on monday Excellent! Now, you will check this lesson and then try to discover the key of the song: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Determ...-Key-Of-A-Song/ -------------------- My lessons
