Part 2 Schools/Mascis Jamband interview

[Annastefka]

This is part 2….of the Dave Schools/J Mascis interview that Jeremiah posted here a few weeks ago.
A few laugh out loud moments for me….I wish I understood the "comping" thing…comping is just filler chords/notes right? I don’t really understand what they are talking about but I guess I’ll have to "come back to that another day."

i think comping is compiling the best parts from different performances to get one good one, like a solo might be compiled of the best parts of 3 or 4 takes. i could be wrong.
