are you him?
maybe.
you look like him.
then maybe i’m him.
are you?
does it matter?
no it doesn’t matter i just wondered.
ok…maybe i am.
i knew it.
i didn’t say anything.
yeah i know.
yeah? you really know?
i’m cool, it’s ok i’m cool.
ok.
so can i ask you?
sure.
i want to learn how to play that solo, the one on that record.
note for note, or how to think about playing solos?
oh man, that’s a great question. i love that question.
yeah it’s a good question.
i’ll choose door number one.
note for note.
is that wrong?
there is no wrong.
how can you say that. there is wrong. if i throw a pie in your face it is wrong.
i don’t think so, even the pie, even being out of tune.
so you don’t think i should do note for note, do you.
someone like yourself might benefit more from not copying.
who said anything about being out of tune?
i did, but just metaphorically.
so it’s now about grammar?
no.
then why the metaphor?
you got me.
i’ve been playing since i was wee.
holy.
so i think i know a thing or two.
no doubt.
you might check yourself.
why are you here again?
because i was hoping to learn from you.
