Scales? Barely. Like I said, I'm just a hack.

Well, they can. Words don't change meaning because you suffer from some weird idealism when it comes to musicians.

you're way off base and are putting the concept of music and art on a pedestal dude. You're using the same logic as people who think that gay marriage is bad because it somehow invalidates traditional marriage.

Also, "just picking up an instrument" is a great way to misrepresent my point, good job.

Yes. I am putting music and art on a pedestal. That's where it should be. And you certainly made it sound like you're saying a anyone who picks up a instrument is a musician.

I just want to get this straight. You're on a site about music, modding it, and you don't put music on a pedestal?
