Thanks so much for the reply, Mr. Motivator! Hope you’re still enjoying your Birthday groove, fellow Capricorn. 🙂

You’re way, waaaay too modest, Matt. “Basic songs…” LOL!!!! I’ve been playing (trying) lots of piano with my wife and hitting the horns really hard. Making up for lost time. Soprano helps tenor a lot.

Plenty of great horns in Chicago right now… Joshua R. is on Drupal 7… Would love to change that…

Looking forward to WordCamp Chicago!

Rock, on Matt! We’re very thankful for WordPress!

Sounds like you’re on a roll, I don’t have anything to add to that. 🙂 I’m going to try and spend some time this year with other instruments like guitar and piano to get my chops up a bit there, be able todo at least some basic songs.

You would have to mention Joshua Redman, eh? Any chance of getting some sax tips out of you this year? I know–with 25% of the Internet on your back–you don’t have time to shed, but what would you practice if you did?

Playing over short, seamless loops (2-8 bars) of recordings and BIAB has made the biggest impact on my playing to date. Listening to, and then singing along with, a two- or four-bar loop–AWAY from the horn–has worked wonders. Synthetic reeds have saved me a ton of time. I make my own Aebersolds in BIAB, again focusing on short loops. As far as books, Viola, McLean, McGhee, Fishman, Bergonzi and Aebersold…for starters. Ear training (transcribing w/ Joe Henderson method) and memorization are my musical goals for this year. Too much information…

Groove on, Matt! WP-4-Life!!!

Big respect for the self-expression awareness you brought with the simple act of dying your hair. Fielded that question about it at WCUS very well too. Keep on keeping on!

I think I followed them since your 22th birthday. I hope you come by Copenhagen again soon. Give us a heads up, if you do. We got some exiting stuff happening in the danish WordPress community this year.
