I think skill level is essential in getting the 'Muse' to visit. I do not believe it is a 'jack hammer effect', nor simply a psychological state educed by droning which is purely physical (so, Larry, go ahead and pooh-pooh this all you want). If it was simply a physical reaction everyone would be able to easily attain that musical 'zone' where genius and magic happen. Don't remember who remarked on this state saying something like: 'when every note you play is right, and you can't play a wrong one.' This is a nice quote about the Muse visiting: 'Music rears it's beautiful head and puts you right into the rightness.'- Trey Gunn Misha "*We* are the music makers and *we* are the dreamers or dreams.' - Willy Wonka ********************************** 'Future Perfect' - art music http://home1.gte.net/artmusic 'Hazard Factor' - spontaneous grooves http://home1.gte.net/artmusic/hazard Dave Eichenberger- guitars/loops/devices http://home1.gte.net/artmusic/dave
