This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

As a bassist, I can at least say that was my experience. I learned pentatonic by paying attention to which notes I'd hear most often, and recognizing which pattern on the fretboard they usually showed up in when played in sequence.

That was pretty much all I needed to be able to jam semi-decently, and everything else just sort of progressed from there.
