Sorry, it's not often you see someone claiming to be as good as Geddy in his prime (and implicitly better than Geddy now) and trying to prove this by posting an 18 second video clip. That doesn't strike you as a bit ridiculous?

On a Rush board where everyone sucks their cocks all day noone can be good at anything without being labelled as arrogant. The only people that say that are the ones that suck. f***ing hater. I guess if you cant sing their toughest stuff or play bass as good then you just hate on those that can, and Im a far better bassist than I am a singer.

I learned how to play the guitar on tabs, and still can't read guitar sheet music to this day. Wahhhh Tabs have their use. Tabs can be helpful to dig out that hidden riff and I would have loved to have them around when I was learning to play. They are the only resource that a non-music reader has to use besides their ear. IMO, they're a good road map but fail to communicate the rhythmic nuance - pretty important to a bass player. Another limitations of tabs is that they can lock you into fingering patterns that may not necessarily be the best fingering choices. Fortunately, I do read music though I'm not a great sight reader. I highly recommend picking up a book on music theory or taking some piano lessons. It really opened up the fretboard for me. Also, having a very talented guitarist show me more efficient fingering positions changed my playing and finally let me understand how Geddy was playing what sounded impossible. And I love seeing Geddy's sheet music - looks like someone sneezed on the page. And do not forget, neither McCartney, nor Lennon (and neither Jagger, nor Richards) could read music and no tabs back then. It didn't seem to hold them back and they did alright. Just play. If you need tabs - no shame, use them. If you can read music, fine; if you can't that's okay too. Just play. The joy is in the playing. Let your inner song out.

Jake2112 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) Got the tab book. For the most part it's dead on with some bum notes in "Carnies" and some off time signature stuff in "Clockwork Angels" but nothing too major that makes this book unreadable. Edit: No, it does not have the piano part in "The Garden" but has the guitar part underneath it. Edited July 26, 2012 by Jake2112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love seeing Rush's sheet music, how much 'stuff' there is crammed onto the page, and it's fun trying to read through it! I was lucky enough to come across an Anthology of Rush music (all songs from Rush to Hemispheres!) at a thrift store a few years ago; wish I could find more of these!

Haven't gotten into tab yet; there's just something about sheet music that appeals more. Musical notation is just better looking! Is the Rush Anthology you are referring to: Rush Complete Vol 1 (black cover with Red Starman)? If so, I've probably spent more time with that 'book' than all other books combined. Also has a great history of Rush in the Preface. Very great to have back in the late 80s especially before Visions (Rush biography) came out. I also have Rush Complete Vol 2 (PeW through PoW). Not nearly as used as Vol 1. Lastly, I also got my CA tab book earlier this week. Haven't attempted playing anything yet. Was waiting for the weekend. Didn't want to get too excited, stay up way too late, and be worthless at work, get fired, live in a van down by the river..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMXED Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Shreddy, just keep trying to learn by ear. The more you do this the better you will get. We know its hard and frustrating but you'll get better from all that stuff. Ear training just takes a lot of practice and time. See how much you can get by ear and then check the tabs once they get posted. Hang in there, j. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmm_donuts Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Ya know back before this internet thing-a-ma-jig we had to figure out songs all by ourself. Yep, fire up the record on the turntable and play the same 15-20 seconds over and over until I learned it. Drove the roommates nuts. But I guess internet tabs save time since I don't have 2-3 hours to spend figuring out songs. It does take some of the challenge out of it though.

No matter what anyone says someone helped everyone playing guitar get started by showing them at least some basics like chords and some scales and how to tune it. I've never heard of members of orchestras taking shits on sheet music since they can learn it from a record. It's ok to use tab - relax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
