Yes we should, because there are 400+ annonymous people reading threads, and never commenting or logging in, usually old ones. They should be on the site chipping in. Mystery solved as you can have 50 views and one comment, and whats so hard about contributing, they are here anyway.

To your other point there is a pro metal guitarist, considered one of the fastest shredders in all of metal, who had a love for jazz, and it took him 10 years to be able to feel jazz correctly, im sure it would be likewise the other way around.

Jazz to me is another world, you can have 4 chords in a measure, and complicated chords, and the rhythms so so difficult.

But alot of times jazz players cant play rock, they cant get the attack right, even if they have the theory and the technique.


Not uncommon to be playing in 9-8 time or 5/4 or 11/8 it gets crazy.

My buddy plays jazz piano, one heck of a player but he started out with rock so hell never lose that feel growing up with it.

Plays some classical too, classical is all about technique and proper positioning and big time sight reading, you gotta read music if you want to play classical... for sure
