Music Lesson Jam Session

Introduction

Well, let's get a couple of people up! Who fancies having a jam? Fantastic! Anyone?

Encouragement for Students

While we're getting ready, I want to address anyone who might be sitting there, thinking they'd like to get up but feeling a little intimidated.

I was recently talking to one of you on the Internet about this course, and I can't remember who it was, but I can relate to that feeling.

When I started out playing guitar, I was much later to the scene than my friends. I began playing music at about 15 years old and was hanging out with musicians who had been playing for much longer.

We used to go to jam sessions, and I never got up because I felt like they were all so far ahead of me that I wouldn't play anything of value.

I still wish to this day that I had just gotten up and tried it. There were so many missed opportunities to improve because I felt intimidated at the time.

So if you're sitting there feeling like that, I understand how you feel. Please do get up! It's a very friendly atmosphere here, and no one is judging you.

Call to Action

So don't let that hold you back, please.

And it's true, you definitely learn by actually doing it.

The Jam Session Begins

Are you up a little? Sorry, are you sure?

Yeah, sounds nice. Fantastic!

Introducing the Musicians

Wow, fantastic! What's your name?

So we've got Druvith on the hypophone, which is a first. We've got Duncan on the guitar, and what's your name, sir?

Oh, shout out to Fred! I'm Fred on the drums.

Let's initially play it as if we're on a gig. Then we can talk about what happened in the tune and things.

Musical Instructions

So, do you want to take a couple of verses? I've got the hypophone, so it's up to you, man. Do you want to sing this one?

No? It's fine. I'm hearing this, man. Fantastic!

Final Rehearsal Instructions

This is a worthwhile experience. Don't be nervous.

I'll count it in and we're going for a quick change from F to B flat.
