If there is one thing BIAB does better than any other software, it gives you something to play along with. Pick something you like mute everything except the bass and drums. If you are a guitar player listen to stuff Brent Mason plays. Slow it down until you can understand it.

The internet has ten zillion backing tracks to play too. Every song that exist just about is on youtube. If you are going to play gigs, stand up when you practice. Play like you are on stage.

It takes real work to play things slow. Continuing to play fast and sloppy will keep you from ever learning to play well.

Some of the best guitar players in the world don't play super fast. They know how but they know two good notes are worth a thousand meaningless fast notes.


Now if I could just take my own advice more often...lol
