      Hi guys,
      Haven’t been on Johnny’s site for about a month, sorry about that guys. In September I got picked up by a Blues Band and in October I have been very, very busy with rehersalss and gigs. We’ve had a gig every single weekend and it will continue for the rest of this year, some of our upcoming gigs are in out-of-state locations. Thankfully my job accommodates well to my now busy playing schedule. I can tell you this much….playing your own blues solos with Altissimo in front of other people is one of the greatest feelings in the world….people really get hooked on the stuff 🙂 Will get something on here as soon as my schedule permits–rock on guys. JOHNNY: Thank you so, so much for everything you’ve done to help me learn this awesome instrument–never planned on anything like this happening, being picked up by a Blues band 🙂

                Hi Michael, that is so awesome. Hey can you tell us what you did to get noticed? Did you have an audition, join a blues club?

                  Blues Band sounds great

                  . I have a question about those Capitol letters I see in some music scores. I have a sheet music score “WAVE” and these letters appear in squares in four sections of the sheet music. “A” marking the first 12 bars, “B” marking the next 12 bars, “C” marking the next 8 bars, “D” marking the next 12 bars. And the repeat goes back to section “C” and goes all the way through section “D”

                    I think it’s just that William, to mark the next group of 12 bars as they will be slightly different from each one.
