So, you can honeslty say that you can remember every note and every chord used in every song?
I did not say I know every note. I said too bad I didn't know guitar cause I could of picked up some chords just from watching them play. I actually watch people play and the positioning of hands and fingers. I don't know why you would question that someone( who knew how to play) couldn't pick up something from watching another person play.This was the original post.
you know too bad I don't play guitar cause all the shows I was watching Steve and even Mike I could pick up the chords from watching them.
You're a player right? So here is a question for you. if you watched another guitarist play, the postitioning and all, you wouldn't understand the chords or notes they were playing?
One of the guys in Europe asked Steve about a few chords to Are You Sad. I still remember the few chords he said, although I have no idea what they mean.
I don't want to argue with you. But it pissed me off that you would aske me and then insult me because I knew what an EBOW was. I am not stupid and your comments were taken in that tex.
Long Jon-there are people on here who annoy me also, but I don't say anything cause it is just a message board.
LANDO-reading your post about an ELBOW made me laugh. I started thinking of Twister. although they don't use elbows in the game. Just hands, and feet.
Right hand blue, left food green. This is usually fun when you are drunk and playing with both sexes and alot of people.

Yes, because I'm literally "trained" to understand.

okay so if you are trained to understand why would my statement saying If ( and IF being the Word here)I was a player I could pick up chords be questioned? You are contradicting yourself. You said you are trained to understand. So what is the difference in that statement and what I said?
Is there a difference between knowing how to play and being trained? Isn't it the same thing?
I think the problem with you was you read it as saying I know the chords now( as a non player)
I am just trying to understand why you are so adament about this. You basically said to me that If I was a player I couldn't learn the chords from watching.
Let's end this. But next time you make a statement, read what is actually written, because you just said yourself you are trained to understand.
if you wrote on here, I learned a few chords from watching XYZ guitarist last night, and someone said BULLS**T, you get pissed cause you are a player.
Let's just make up okay. End of arguement and all of this nonsense.
and since you are the resident Mike fan and player on here I have a question to ask?
as a player who influenced you? I am a huge fan of Slash, Edge, Eric Clapton, Jon Frusciante. I also really dig Steve. Next time will be interesting because it will actually be his contribution to the band. There are alot of other people I love to watch, but those guys are my faves.
