Hey monte is there anyway we can put all the stuff we need to do in one area? It seems like its in 3 or 4 threads and it
is easy to miss one. Maybe make a thread with only the stuff you want us to do in it and youre the only one to post in it
so it doesnt get too long.
Also since you have half of us working on the phrygian lessons and half on the lydian lesson, can we do two collabs one for the lydian people and one for the phrygian people? I was thinking since we are studying a different scale it would
be better.

I'll see what I can come up with. Anybody else have any thoughts on this?

yeah, its all very confusing.... I cant recall what the 2 licks and the constructed solo are really about. And I'm not real sure where to go look at the moment.
I'm sure I could find them, but a 1 stop thread with the details would be helpful.

I think everything is in the ANNOUNCEMENT thread as far as details. If not, I'll put them there and then I'll start a thread for all the Monthly lesson uploads and I'll have Skenny delete this thread. It is kind of confusing...Sorry.

no prob.
Its a by-product of great content coming from you and great conversation from the group.
I'll take it!

Nothing to be sorry about... Im really enjoying the stuff youve given me to practice and
im dedicated to learning.. This is just what i needed, someone like you to help me focus
my practicing.. Before last week, i didnt even know what a triad was.. I thought it was some
asian gang or something..
thanks monte

asian gang
And I thought the phrygians were an ancient race of people that built the pyramids.

Rather than one announcement thread, why not creating a thread for what is due for the week?
Naming the thread "New Assignment Due 3-10-09" ?
Posted by: jer Mar 9 2009, 02:54 PM
I didnt think there was any "weekly" things. Just monthly.
To my knowledge we have to create 2 licks and then write them in GP. I dont remember what thread that is in....
And the composed short solo that we play over the DDEE backing. Which I think we said was a Lydian backing, so I think we are to play something Lydian.... I dont really remember here... DDEE would be in the key of Dmaj too I think. Hell, I dont remember. We move around so much I cant remember this stuff.
I found the "D Lydian March Collaboration"
http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=25005&view=findpost&p=346248
Speaking of the D Lydian collab, I cant find anything that says how long that needs to be. I may have missed it... If I am mixing everyone's takes over the backing we'd need some sort of structure for this yes?
And here is the link to the "Create 2 Licks" thingamajig!

I'm gonna post in everybody's thread today and just make sure that we are on the same page as far as what everybody should be doing. Outlaw asked if those working on the phrygian lesson could do a phrygian collab and those working on the lydian lesson could do a lydian collab. I think this is a good idea. What do you guys thing?
Muris said we could use the backings from the lessons to solo over. I have them so maybe we should do that. Anybody against doing that?
Those working on the lydian lesson are already familiar with the backing and same with those working on the phrygian. My assignment from Muris for my MTP is to compose a solo for the Phrygian backing. Why don't we keep it simple and just do this.
Kaz, outlaw, myself and Jesse will compose a solo over the phrygian backing. No deadline....yet.
Dan, Jer and Marek can do the same with the Lydiand backing. I'll post in those respective threads and give you some ideas and what you can do for the solos.
Let's plan on this unless you guys are just dead set against it.
I'll post in everybody's individual threads to make sure that we are on the same page to start the week off. Happy Monday!!

Great interaction and ideas happening here. Just want to tell you guys you are doing great job, very interesting to read on my part and enjoy it
Posted by: opeth.db Mar 9 2009, 03:31 PM
There's really not that much activity here Pedja. 710 of those replies are Jer's questions.
Posted by: jer Mar 9 2009, 03:43 PM
And I can bet that those questions have been helpful to each and every one of you guys at one time or another.
"D Lydian March Collaboration"
So ditch the DDEE backing and use the Muris one instead?
Posted by: Pedja Simovic Mar 9 2009, 03:47 PM
I mean overall activity in Monte's threads
Questions are good - it would be bad not to ask any B)

It was a joke.
Posted by: Pedja Simovic Mar 9 2009, 04:06 PM
I know
Posted by: jer Mar 9 2009, 04:06 PM
FYI - I knew it was a joke.
Opeth.db crackin-wise on a Monday morning.
You gotta bear with him. He's kinda "special".

Yeah, I'll post in everybody's thread so we are all on the same page.
Keep the questions coming Jer!!!
Posted by: opeth.db Mar 9 2009, 04:13 PM
I am special. My mommy tells me that all the time.
Posted by: jer Mar 9 2009, 04:33 PM
Its a good thing that the helmet doesnt interfere with your guitar playing.
Monte,
I'd rather NOT use the same backing as the other lesson.
I think it opens up the possibility of using the leads in Muris' lesson as "crutches". You know, already seeing something that works. I like the idea of starting with nothing.
Posted by: Marek Rojewski Mar 9 2009, 05:34 PM
Muris backing is cooler, but on the other side Jer has a good point.
Posted by: lcsdds Mar 9 2009, 05:54 PM
Im gonna let everybody tell me what they want to solo over. The whole point of the solo is to get you guys to use the tools and theory you have learned so far. I don't care what you solo over. I want everybody to post in their threads what track they want to solo over and I will edit my update that I am doing in your threads to reflect which track you have decided to do. It won't really be a collab. Just you guys putting what you have learned to use.

Me too.
Posted by: lcsdds Mar 9 2009, 06:15 PM
Everybody post in your threads what backing you want to solo over. You can even create your own if you would like. I just want you to solo over something.
Posted by: jer Mar 9 2009, 06:26 PM

Posted by: opeth.db Mar 9 2009, 06:50 PM
Let me see you actually solo first then I'll get my face out for you to solo on.
Lots of hammer ons coming....
