reading music

...Maybe you can come up with some cool profound stuff, but try getting it written down for another person, or getting it out into the puplic. It just doesn't work very well. Being able to read music is more important than a lot of people think.

If somebody can't write standard notation, he can make one of his fellow musicians write it down for him :0)

But his fellow musicians may want to make him right it down himself, so that he gets better at it. :p
(Thats what I used to do to my bass player)

He can always hire a good poor musician to write his stuff in notation, will only cost him few bucks , poor musicians are everywhere :D

lol

But, if poor musicians were everywhere, he himself could be one. How would he hire someone to write down his music?
(Anybody getting the feeling we could turn this into a riddle?)

Hiring a poor guy to write notation for you will surely cost less than getting Books (or a teacher) to learn how to write it.

Blah :p

But if ya write more than one song over time than you must pay him over time on more than one occasion.That'll cost more than a book.
Plus the poor guy can take that money and buy a better guitar than you've got, or get some books for himself and become the next Joe Satriani or something.
:D
This could go on forever, so lets just say there are pros and cons to both tab and standard notation.
