Looking back

[mike short]

Do you ever read old posts of your on the IRC and cringe at the advice you gave or what you thought was completely right?

I do.

In a roundabout way, I suppose that's a good thing: feeling good about yourself now for being a little bit smarter than you were. But man, some of the shit I said? Sorry about that.

Man, I hope you don't regret this thread.

 

[mike short]

I probably will.

Regrets take you out of the moment. If it really hangs you up, then go back and edit it by adding like an addendum to it and say "I know think this about that ...". Since I like agree with virtually everything you've said here on the irc, should I revise my own thinking with regard to the things I agreed with you about? I wouldn't sweat it. I go though phases where I'm like "no, there's only the chromatic scale and everything is just a way to organize the totality of an instrument's range" and then I'm like "well, there are x number of this and ... " ("..." = "and all the things that we do to play something playable".
