There are no limitations but ours. You can tune a string to an infinite amount of pitches between C and C#, but you just can't hear the difference on the smaller intervals. There is an infinite number of points in time between two beats set at 240 beats per minute, but we just can't sense the difference when it gets close.
But, take heart.
All style comes from limitation.
That's why genres come and go.
Jazz progressed to the point where it could go no further with bebop. Who could play faster? With more notes? So it lost the listeners.
The trick is to be B.B.King. To play one note and have anyone in the world recognize you.
You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash It's only music. -niteshift Mike Dunbar Music
