okay #1 I had no clue where to post this

the whole reason i am starting this is because i am wanting to learn how to solo but i need to clarify some things

1) how do u find out the key of the song??? is it the first chord or note that is played?

2) when you find the key (lets say that it is G)... do you only solo in different G scales or can u mix through many different ones (depending on the key)

3) when u find out what scales u can play in lets say G D A (I dont even know if those work) can u just freely go through them or should u wait until the end of a phrase and only start in the next scale on a specific note?

4) can someone please answer those few questions knowing that i dont know that much?


thanks so much and sorry if these are stupid questions
dave is a musical genious

It would take so long for me to type out the answers to those wuestions, I suggest just picking up a book at a music shop and reading about it yourself

Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. I think, "It is better to drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.
