Comment by cbgkent on October 23, 2019 at 5:49pm: Thanks for the comments guys. Daniel, no classes have picked it up as I go along. I’m sure accomplished musicians can pull me up and correct me on stuff but it’s an amazing hobby and happy to pass on anything I learn. Cigarboxnation ROCKS!

Comment by Daniel Walter on October 21, 2019 at 10:46am: Chris: did you attend a "music theory"class or two? Or self taught? Either way, kudos.I would have to watch and listen about 100 times to sink in. maybe i can make a tape that repeats itself from sleeping....?
