dunes guitars just get nerdier
#addicted to the playthroughs#gordon ramsey told me he thinks they're good too#“simple. fresh. elegant. dunes”#at the 9/28 show I forgot what song but frank was doing that tapping technique I can only equate to midwest emo guitar.#travis does the tap thing in 2022#but i've not seen frank play like this in other stuff#he's really reinvented his style for ls dunes in my opinion#the technique is probably all over other genres not just emo but it's cool in dunes

How to Play Guitar Like B.B. King
By Shawn Leonhard for Guitar Tricks and 30 Day Singer. If you like blues guitar or any styles of early rock then you are likely a fan of B.B. King! His string bends, vibrato, and staccato picking of his self-made blues scales left a mark on music history and many fans who wished to emulate his playing. Nothing he did was all that difficult as far as guitar mastery goes, it’s his unique style and…

Hello Pia, you recently shared a post about an idea "too good" to write. Could you maybe elaborate a little on that point? What does that mean to someone who appears to be quite skilled in creating stories and characters?
Sure!
I think everyone, at every stage in a skill they're honing, have goals they're trying to reach and skills they know they still need to work on. Even the folks who - from other people's perspective - seem like they (mostly) have it all together.
When I was working as an artist for example, I used inks and pencils at a professional level. I did natural history illustration at a professional level. I was very good at what I did and have sold the vast majority of everything I've ever illustrated!
But I'm still not skilled at drawing people (I'm getting better). I'm not skilled at oil paints or acrylics. And while some of my skills would transfer over pretty well (having a good eye, having a great sense of colour, having a decent sense of composition), it still remains that I have a lot to learn because being skilled in one thing is not being skilled at another.
And when you work like that and understand the craft like that, it gives you a different perspective. Folks who have zero ability in art might look at an artist's illustrations and simply assume they can easily transfer that to any medium or subject or technique, and folks who have more ability than the artist might look at their art and be like 'oh they're very good at animals and pencils but I've noticed they're weak on dynamic posturing and perspective.'
So where I'm at in writing is like this. I have a fair idea of my strengths, but I also have a fair idea of my weaknesses. There's certain very large scale ideas that I suspect I'm not yet ready for, because of either the scope of the plotting, or the depth of the worldbuilding. (I find worldbuilding easy. I find remembering all the details I created very hard).
There's also the fact that some of it is almost certainly fear. Like, fear of trying something new, fear of it going wrong, fear of making mistakes to get better. That absolutely is part of the journey, and the only way to overcome that is to get started and begin making the mistakes.
But no matter what level you're at, there's always a level you know you can't reach without more training and practice. The good news is a person doesn't always have to "grow" their skills relentlessly, just practicing what they love keeps what they do honed anyway. Like, I could stop here and keep writing the kinds of stories I write and do that for another ten years.
But I do want to keep growing, and keep learning new ways of telling stories, so...yeah, I do have story ideas that I know I'm not good enough to write (well) yet.
#asks and answers#personal#pia on writing#on writing#on art#the reality is you can also apply this to any skill#a master chef who specialises in Indian cuisine knows they're not a master of#all the other cuisines they've never mastered#many of which will have different techniques#it's the same whether you're a dancer#a singer#you play piano or guitar#whether you write fiction or nonfiction#there's no such thing as being 'done' and the#more you learn and become skilled#the more you realise that there's endless levels of specialisation#and you actually only know like a handful out of thousands just in your field#or: 'the more you know the more you realise you don't know'

fascinated by the way different people hear music
#like when i am listening to a song. i am listening to the drums usually. so the drums are at the forefront of the song and everything else#is underneath them. i can hear which drum and which technique and how closed the hihat is and i can pick out all those small things that#to someone who doesnt play the drums would just be a part of the background and blur together#and its the same with other instruments; someone who plays guitar would hear guitar at the front and be picking out the chords and fingers#and to me its just a funkly little vibe that blends in with everything else#and so on and so forth
