A while back, MAC posted a link to a youtube vid in which the same lick was used in a bunch of different songs

I thought of that link recently when I was at a friend's gig, and noticed that the sax player had a very small repertoire of licks, which he repeated through the chord progressions of all their songs.

If you compare him to BIAB, he brings the same thing to the table that you'd have using the chord chart to create songs with only one style.

I know not all musicians are like this, so no need to go down the rabbit trail of refuting a statement I'm not making here.. BUT...

<soap box>
Anybody who has ever played in a band with other musicians has been disappointed at least once by the limitations of the other musicians. But with BIAB/RB there are virtually no limitations! WE are the weak links in an otherwise near-perfect song environment! Unless you just fall in love with a certain RT and use it for all your songs, there's no reason that the backing tracks you perform with would EVER repeat the same lick!

And with BIAB you're also not locked into the same 5 instruments for every song, because they're what your band mates play

And you're not locked into a particular genre because of the band's demographic.

This has got to be the MOST LIBERATING and FLEXIBLE music software for just about any musical use.
