I love music and drugs... I am not a musician but I would like to know what it would be like to play on mescaline. Because on LSD music sounds ultra magical... shrooms music is terrific! Mescaline , the music is still great but it is a little weirder. Mescaline does something strange with the sounds that doesn't vibe and flow the same way LSD does. Hard to explain.... a music person probably knows what I mean...that is if they like drugs.

If you're serious about wanting to learn, the Berklee method is TITS mate. Take a course or two through Berklee's online extension school starting with Scales 101 and it will all open up for you. PROMISE.

Talent only counts for 10 percent. The rest is getting the right methods to help you work on it, and then spending the time.

They're good for plenty of other fine tasks but making music gets all confused somewhere along the way. It's got to be a mental issue of some kind. But it's ok because I can do advanced math that makes most people cringe.

I've been helping my daughter with her maths. Goddamn they've really dumbed down the syllabus over here. And a while ago I spoke to a youngster that wants to get into forensics, complained about having to do algebra. Sheeeuuut. Me and my dad used to do that for FUN. Basic calculus has gone out the window over here. It's disgusting. A dying artform, mathematics. Real pity because it really IS the key to understanding soooo much.

You can get any degree online these days. YOu can become a teacher online or a psychologist, You can completely cheat on all your tests and papers and no one would be the wiser...............thats why there is so much demand for chemical engineers and engineers... You can't fake math. You have to go into a classroom and take a test.

I take it you're into Fractal Geometry, Mr Duck?... Just blows my little mind that shit does. Fractal Image Compression... HOLY BALLS. Taking an image and breaking it down into a frigging formula. WAY, WAAAAAY above my abilities of course. But anybody that sees how it's done and in any way disputes God lives in mathematics is retarded.
