    My school is putting on a talent show so some friends and I decided to put together a band (I play electric bass). We practiced our song and got it pretty good. Then auditions happened today so we had to come up with a band name. We had been throwing around some ideas, but I convinced them to settle on The Fires of Heaven. I have never been happier. This marks the beginning of a long career of naming stuff after fantasy stuff.

    (Note to self: Future things to give Sanderson names: bands, hats, instruments, cats, children.)

      @Goob Tips? I don't really know because I am mostly self-taught. I started out playing in orchestra, then joined jazz band and had to learn electric from a few songs in that. I've played in a rock band before, and for learning from tabs the best advice I can give is just general music advice. Practice slow and in small sections and make sure you know all the terminology. If you are wanting to go a jazzier/original side of things learn scales and chords and just listen to diverse types of music. Also, don't develop bad habits like putting your left thumb to the side of the bridge instead of on the back. I do that and haven't been able to kick the habit. Whoops. So yeah, that's my rambling, probably unqualified advice. Hopefully, that helps.

      @DoomStick Nice. A good instrument indeed. Do you play it in an orchestra? I need a better name for my electric, and I have yet to christen my upright bass.
