Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for March 08, 2025

I don’t know if I can measure up. I’m really trebled about it.

No, but I’m looking for something sharp.

None of those is A Major (three sharps).

Someone’s in treble now. They could be under a rest. They could even do double time, up to forte years. That would B major time.

At least I stayed within the coda conduct.

I just have to check my notes before I make a decision

Watch oout for the one in the lower right — it’s disguised as Eb Major, but it’s really C minor.

I hope they don’t start an argument about which major to choose. They could get angry, and as we all know, violins never solves anything.

Success will depend on the staff, and the notes you take.

No. No, I picked a sergeant. Those officers are such a drag, the ego, always expecting everyone to stand at attention and salute when they walk by, one glissando after another, and of course eventually a lower mordent is expected.

He should try a variety of course and see if one strikes a chord.

Those magic changes…

I think I’m going to jump off a treble clef.

My compositions are chaotic; my minor chords have gone flat. It has no C and thus has no captain. The A doesn’t know what to do….

I have to decompose.

As a self-taught guitar picker, I used to play everything in C. Now I also play mostly in G, A, E, and Am. Same for piano, for now I haven’t ventured beyond C.

But those are all minor. Or dorian. Or mixolydian. Or…

No, I’m afraid he’s going to be flat.

“I can’t, I’m only a minor.”

So cute!

unaccompanied minors

I don’t know yet….after I fell flat last time, I’ll just wait for my tune~up.

“Actually, I’m more concerned about why I have a flag coming out of my butt,” he noted.

WAH -WAH !!

A lot of guitarists have to pick A Major.

I can’t read notes, only tablature but I like the humor. I know a guy who hand writes his music compositions, a lost art. I also know of composers who put the music onto a computer, faster, no mistakes and boring.

Tried to strike a chord, and it’s probably A-minor?

Nothing here for me as I play bass instruments. Maybe tenor clef every once in a while.

I’m trying to scale back. :)

G, I’ll have to look at D notes, and C F anything looks good. I don’t know yet what I want to B. I can scale heights if I try, but I’ll need to stay sharp and get some rest, or I’ll end up flat on my face.

I kind of learned chord theory by the seat-of-the-pants method, fooling around on my sister’s piano, back when I was a relative minor.

Why so many hashtags that aren’t saying anything? ;)

this b flat

Major Minor.

Maybe something to minor in

Can’t get there…too many flats!

10CC did it better and first a long time ago.

“I’m going for marine biology.” “Oh, so, you’re a C Major?”

That note just might be a natural.

Where’s Sunday’s strip?
