Hey everyone. I'm 18 and starting to think about university. I'm for sure going, but exactly what I'm studying is still up in the air. I love music, have been playing guitar for years, and I'm thinking that music is probably the logical direction for me. Skill wise I have no problem. I focus mainly on the acoustic side of things, although I'm no stranger to the electric guitar. I play percussive fingerstyle music like Don Ross and Justin King. I'm completely self taught and have a very basic knowledge of music theory. (thanks to 2 years of piano lessons)
My question to those of you who have been through post secondary music studies is, what should I do in preparation for these courses? I have the summer to catch up, but where exactly do I have to catch up to? Also, what are some ways I can do this, excluding taking lessons.
Thanks
-Dave
