I've been much less active the last 3 or so days, idk if you guys noticed. Anyway, I was busy at a seminar learning music
in its entirety. And I did and it was probably the single most amazing experience of my entire life.
If you ever wanted/failed/tried/succeeded at music, guys, even considered touching an instrument one day ever, I'm telling you, go to this seminar if it ever comes near you, no matter WHAT your skill level, no matter how little sense it makes, honestly, the less you know the less there is to UN-LEARN:

I went to this three day seminar, no idea how to read music, no idea what a circle of fifths was supposed to be, no idea how to work out scales or chords. Most of it was cleared up in a few minutes once the guy (Duncan Lorien) had explained that we have to stop trying to make sense of one of the most ridiculous systems on Earth.
No matter what your skill level, I'm not even advertising here, I get nothing if one of you goes to this seminar other than the message you'd send me afterwards to say "thanks th!nk i can play Bach after 3 days" (aint kidding, I played a little Bach yesterday), which is plenty.
It's so hard to try and explain just how amazing this seminar is, three days and I GET EVERYTHING EVER. Like, don't miss out, it's life-changing stuff.
My only regret is that I was too sceptical to go
last year. Every word on that feedback page is true, and it's worth every cent you will pay (and Perth is like, the most expensive seminar they run because everything here costs double).
This Duncan Lorien guy is basically the "mystical music-teaching fairy". I swear, no mere mortal could teach me to read music in under a day, given I'd tried for 2.5 months and then given up.
It's so hard to explain without you guys having been there without sounding like a shill, but just DON'T miss the chance, ever. He travels the world doing this stuff 8 months out of the year, so odds are he'll end up somewhere near you.
