“Chromatics” is that like chromosomes? Should I jizz in my solos?

Have to admit. 500x better? Get outta here. 1000x better? OK, I'm listening.

Can’t get over the fact that his advice for “how to make pentatonics more interesting” is literally “do not play pentatonics.” A pentatonic scale “with chromatics” lmao

I always feel torn when I see Rick in here. I mean, I get it. But, Rick is a good dude. No, not a parasocial good dude where I think I know him. I know him. Good dude. Very thoughtful in conversation regarding a medical issue with my kid that was hurting her piano progress.

So, yeah.... like that.

See what I did there.

Adding? No one told me there was going to be math. Which chord is pentatonics again?

Just in: Rick Beatoff reinvented the minor scale.

It’s for old boomers in jeans, who can’t jump anymore. They have to personally touch every fucking stone on the sidewalk with their stupid white sneaker feet and call it “chromatic”. Supercharge your annoying walks grandpa. By the way, I arrived at my destination hours ago.

Wait, so I should use the blues scale for my solos? Like the famous blues musicians Yellow Ledbelly and Dave Mudstain?

Ace Frehley should teach him how to solo
