  3. The cattle prod method ( punishment for unwanted behaviour ) is not as effective in the long run as the Reward Good Behaviour And Discourage Unwanted Behaviour by Ignoring It method . Try the Reward With Fish method :- [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yS6qU_w3JQ[/media]

Randy Newman talks about a couple :- 6:30 " You can leave your hat on " 14:12 " Short People " [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KX73Cwx61U[/media] In a similar way I didn;t get the humour in Leonard Cohen's " I'm Your Man " until I heard the original because I only knew the Joe Cocker version .

  9. [quote name='DaveFry' timestamp='1503760816' post='3360780'] The map is not the territory . * * Alfred Korzybski [/quote] I fear I need to explain further for fear of accusation of elitism . - TAB notation is like a map representing a tune we wish to learn . - Conventional notation is another map for the same territory . - Apparently John Paul Jones uses his own map that he learnt from his father to write in a sort of shorthand in order to remember ideas that come to him . - The Rocksmith visual thing of a fretboard at the bottom and the notes coming down the screen in time is another map . They are all just maps for tunes . Once you learn or know the territory ( the tune ) you should have no need of a map any more . The best map ( in this tune-learning scenario ) is the one that works best for the map reader to learn the territory . Just trying to add perspective .

  16. This may help , 6:35 to 28:00 ( I was reluctant to add till I remembered you play sax , so chances are you may understand a keyboard map .) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey-YWlT1Gc8[/media] hth
  17. When Buddy Holly & The Crickets landed back in the US of A after their world tour in May '58 with cash in their pockets they decided to buy motorcycles and ride home the 350 miles . The three of them caught a cab to the nearest motorcycle dealer's shop in the right direction . The Harley Davidson dealer thought they were just time-wasting kids and threw them out , so they tried the next shop , which happened to sell British bikes . Here they were recognised and treated like royalty so they rode home though a thunderstorm on two Triumphs and an Ariel . Rock 'n Roll ! Buddy's '58 650cc Ariel Cylone was up for auction 3 years ago :- [url="https://www.autoevolution.com/news/buddy-hollys-ariel-cyclone-bike-under-the-hammer-photo-gallery-86354.html"]https://www.autoevol...lery-86354.html[/url]
