So 2 years ago I decided I'd start learning to play the guitar because nothing better to do. Earlier in life I had taken like three lessons and given up playing (turns out my fingers hurting was actually a legitimate concern because the guitar I was using had some massive raise done to it so you had to press like an inch down to get a sound on the second fret). Well pretty much since I was too prideful to take lessons I just started learning chords, songs, and basic riffs. Turns out now that I'm actually looking into stuff, to get gud you need to also learn scales and other things. All this time I've been wondering why it was so hard to do anything but muscle memorize songs. Fm
