Well, it's bloody high time I learned. I'm really bored ****less of the sound of my playing. It's all shapes and shreds my musical imagination has withered away to nothing (it used to be much more active) and I'm sick of being practically at the "Cum-by-ah" stage of ear playing even though I sweep and pinch like a mother. Arghhh. It's time I learned to read music, maybe then I'll really play some.
