Cadgirl-
I got thru FBW course just fine, really– except for the following two concepts:
1. Have a little trouble still on all the “soloing/improvising” portions. I just don’t “get” the ability of making “informed decisions” (per Tony) in choosing notes within a solo or improv. My brain isn’t getting it– especially at ANY kind of speed. I can “jump around”, acting as if I’m soloing- but it’s NOT from thinking about what I’m actually doing.
2. The application of what I’ve learned in FBW and applying it to the Dailies. I know I sound like a broken record on this- (sorry….). Tony’s explanations on how this is done- are just too fast and/or confusing to me. But I admit I have NOT “really dug in” like you & Mike have in this thread- because I don’t know if I’m able to understand it. I read and re-read both of your and Mike’s “later” discussion/posts in this thread– several times– and my eyes glossed-over, and my brain just turned to mush.
I’ll go back and re-read the entire thread in a few days- with “fresh eyes”.
Thanks for your (as always) kind words- (you also Mike!).
