Lurk mode off.
In some of the recent posts, there was mention of being lazy and the need to
practice more ect.... My question is, what is lazy? How much practice is
enough? There is only so much time in the day. Tater, how much do you
"practice" as opposed to playing/working. How much do the rest of you
practice.
I try to play some everyday. Some days it may be 2 or 3 hours, others, hardly
at all. It just depend on what else I've got to do. If I don't have time, is
that being lazy?
So when you practice, what do you do? Tunes, licks, runs, scales?
Somebody told me years ago people shouldn't play by themselves (with no
music) because they would develop their "own timing" and it would then be
difficult to play with other musicians whose timing might not be the same.
I've seen people who did that and really had trouble in a jam. So, I've always
tried to play along with records or cds. Thats how I practice. I have most of
my music on the computer now, so I just try to play along with one tune after
the other. Is there is a better way? How do the rest of you practice? Is
there a routine, a plan, a method to the madness? I'm just looking for other
ideas and suggestions.
Lurk mode back on.
