Surviving a Dorian Jam and All About Modes (Live Guitar Lesson Replay)

[@KevinORourke25]

THE most valuable tutorial I have ever seen regarding modes I have ever seen.

[@tonym9328]

I've been playing Guitar for over 20 years, never learning how to read music or any theory and I have to say your approach is by far the best and easiest to understand. For a long time I could solo over the whole fret board but never understood why certain riffs worked over some chords but not others, even when I was in the "correct" key. Thank you so much for clarifying this for me and bring the joy back to playing!

[@brianrubright9125]

I love watching what you post. I wish I could afford to donate, but it's not in my limited budget right now. What you do to share your knowledge and keeping it light and enjoyable is flipping awesome.

[@KipIngram]

19:20 - Yes, it's making *perfect* sense. I've chased down several of your mode videos in the last day or so, and they're super-enlightening. I feel like a new piece of the puzzle is falling into place for me. Solid gold.

[@StichMethodGuitar]

I want you to email me at [e-mail]

[@azzynight5000]

Don't feel bad about people donating. You deserve it. I've seen other channels where people spend more time asking for donations than actually focusing on their content. Plus, you are genuinely teaching. I love the look on your face when you stream with your student and the student gets it. You are not showing off and making your students feel bad about themselves. You genuinely want to share the knowledge, and I love that. I've been playing guitar for around 30 years and after watching your videos and streams, I feel an even deeper connection to the instrument. Looking forward to the next video and/or stream!

[@mikehendrix2202]

I just would like to say. This was a great lesson, and also a beautiful moment. I was smiling so much from the generosity, love and thankfulness in this video. You have and are helping so many, and you truly deserve all positive you receive (not just donations). Ok sorry I got so salty lol, I'll shut up now. Thank you Ian!

[@rayross997]

I kinda figured this out on my own some time ago by comparing Dorian & Minor Pentatonic, but you give a really good explanation here Stich. It is the Keep It Simple idea for sure. Many people just seem to make the whole mode thing so complicated. Thanks for all your videos.

[@brettlazor8219]

Your teaching style is freakin' awesome man, keep on keeping on

[@keechpeach2863]

Hi Ian, watched on replay (since it is still sleepy-time here when you go live.) It made sense, it was helpful, and I loved it. Thanks!

[@chriscameron643]

Thanks, fantastic video. Looking forward to the shirts.

[@bazengu1]

Thank you I really enjoy learning how you explain music lesson

[@coreshaw2043]

stich pray to God for you healthy. great lesson

[@kungfumonkeyfluff]

Nice one Ian. Thanks again, the stuff about the major/minor templates was helpful in starting to understand stuff finally! Watching on the reply and finding it funny..

[@markhoegler4891]

The lesson I've needed. Thanks

[@mbradleyltc]

Awesome! This is great. Thank you man

[@adamkorner1651]

Great lesson Stich! I have to get on one of these live lesson feeds soon. Playing that dorian mode with a hybrid blue note sounds sweet :)))

[@scottschool6157]

Fantastic, i knew simplicity of logical thinking was on my horizon of guitar theory ,leave it to you Ian to guide me their. Thank you 😊

[@neilsouza5118]

Thanks Ian, can't wait for the shirts!

[@CashDayYoung]

Best guitar teacher

[@James57AOL]

It s easy to follow or even to grasp the principles you are offering as they are the standard issue references of music as a complete entity Meaning in any instrument. The rules apply

[@drewbarries234]

I'm new to your channel but am learning a lot. I think after 30 years of Pentatonic I'm ready for a few new ideas 🤔 I was listening to the Battle of John and Yoko and at the end there I heard a very cool use of the Mixolydian. Anyway I'm now a fan, subscriber and will be checking out the other videos you've done, thanks Man!!

[@serkandovan]

always smiling, great teacher. thanks. :)

[@jezzbass1826]

Thanks Stich!!!!

[@dmont2]

Most handsome guitar instructor. And the lessons are useful.

[@dmont2]

You're right but that's great for you. Lol

[@dazberry]

I don't want to go to work now, want to stay at home and jam 😎, thanks Ian

[@snbtoday]

Awesome.. simply Awesome...

[@barrydavis1981]

ThNk you for your lessons.

[@elfhermie]

Hey, Ian (and everybody else), just wanted to say have an AWESOME weekend, and Happy Father's Day to all you dads out there!

[@elfhermie]

Just found out Father's Day isn't until NEXT weekend, lol! Oh, well. At least the gifts I ordered online might arrive on time now. So have a good weekend this weekend anyway and then have another awesome one the next. : )

[@iromregal2468]

Thank you thank you thank you so much!!!

[@jackj1111]

stich my man i wish you were my neighbor.. you are just the best..

[@TerrilynndeGuitar]

I wish I could donate too.. You are a very awesome guitar teacher....!!!

[@LacedBacon]

That was the best livestream!

[@straight8ight]

Learn the switch..with Stitch.

[@gingerrose8400]

Yes. T shirts, mugs, bobble head......😆

[@denmar355]

Intervals obtained by starting on the second scale degree and playing the major scale of the home key.

[@MrCsim2]

Brilliant man! The choice of notes built on top of the pentatonic framework defines the mode. Am I getting it?

[@BedHead982]

Bouncin' round the room

[@jbell5970]

Thanks for all the lessons man! Huge Phan! Quick question though, are you an og Phish lot wook from the 90s? haha

[@recycledcitizen]

Sounding great. What kind of guitar is that mate?

[@msolbakken]

I like your lessons, fun and informative. I wonder if you could create a lesson based on Mike Bloomfield, especially the melodic part of the East-West jam at 7:00 till the end. It seems to contain various modal guitar work. Thanks, Mike

[@robertwilson1184]

Thanks for being so giving with all this knowledge. Its pretty amazing how easy you make learning guitar. Hopefully this question makes sense. Is there a formula for figuring out the special note for each mode or is it just memorization?

[@Biteyourownteeth]

www.cyberfret.com/theory/modes/101/page7.php good question this vid is awesome bececause it explains the theory but yeah memorize Mixolydian,Aeolian ,Ionian,Dorian. Phrygian shapes in that order in the key of C major/A minor . just the regular shapes not the three notes per string shapes. and you will see how they all fit together a see the the whole fret board and how it connects, and how the mode shapes kinda live over the blues boxes campfireguitarstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/guitar-scales-modes.png its not hard just like learning the 5 blues boxes with a few more notes per box. just move the shapes up or down to change key. but yeah you need to run your scales every day all over the neck that's the gig use backing tracks they are huge helpers

[@robertwilson1184]

Cool. Thanks!

[@gnpd07]

Starts @ 7:29

[@Hocusland]

the never lost system taught me more in 2 days than my other 27 years of trying too learn guitar thank you.... what are your thoughts on widespread panic? In the mind of Michael Houser or Jimmy Herring

[@Hocusland]

StichMethod Guitar I agree and thanks again

[@ScottS986]

Awesome awesome lesson. You talked about adding the one note most unique to the mode. But aren't there two notes we'd need to add to the pentatonic? Is that note not as special?

[@DeFianTTxx]

Hey Stich, so how should i identify modes? For instance in the key of A. Is the 5 mode A mixolydian? or is it E mixolydian? The first way being the key signature (A) then the Greek name of the fifth mode, or is it the starting note (E) then knowing that it's the mixolydian mode you can assume the key signature is A because you know mixolydian is the 5th mode? If I can clear this up I think it'll have a better understanding of modes

[@DeFianTTxx]

StichMethod Guitar I have watched all of your videos in a short period of time... Lol paralysis by analysis.. I went back and recapped. Thanks again

[@house-ghost]

Stich!!

[@house-ghost]

I tune in. I learn. EVERY time. Hats off to you sir!

[@tmacchioni]

ehi Stich! One easy question, are you playing in a band? Just to see beyond the theory. Thanks

[@gusdogbrownlab435]

Great fun with some excellent theory at a level I can begin to understand. A shirt and mug with the logo and the cat on it please.

[@seth5394]

wow i may just be high but i feel like i get modes now

[@douginny]

Stitch NATION! I have a question bro. Desperate. I've been playing a while but decided to really get serious. I know my pentatonics. But I just learned the Major Scale. Should I learn Dorian as a separate scale or just try to force the notes into Major Scale 2nd mode or even your survival technique seems like a survival technique. I feel like I feel it more (Big ABB fan) when I learn it as a separate scale. Ie: Liz Reed, Whipping Post to me is Dorian A, not "G Major but think A". But that is gonna add an entire new scale to learn in the 5 positions. Help me Obi-Wan, you're my only hope...

[@douginny]

StichMethod Guitar Yeah, I feel Dotian better as it's own scale. But at least you saved me from having to learn the Mixolydian too. That one I can simply flat the 7th per the stitch recommendation. But after watching your Zeppelin video on Since I've Been Loving You , I am now fearing that I may have to learn the Aeolian too. Therefore, I hereby formally request a STITCH METHOD minor scale lesson...

[@MRandall25]

46 Days!

[@joerye6271]

I want to donate, how do I? I've learned a lot and I want to contribute. Can you also summarize the special note for each mode to add to each pentatonic scale. I think I got most of them but not all. This concept is beyond a major breakthrough for those of us stranded on the pentatonic plateau. I understand modes, I would just like to know each special note for each pentatonic. Thanks again for the enlightenment. JoeRye

[@MetalGuru965]

Paul Kossoff of Free played Dorian scale stuff a lot.

[@James57AOL]

Stich, Your efforts are as you say well worth the deciphering. But, the deciphering puts the reality that your offering to much misdirection within the effort to clarify. Set the straight path first then allow for the exceptions please. I took the opportunity to subscribe just because you have a solid understanding as demonstrating, slightly off center if I hadn't understood in advance where your going with the video.

[@CorbinSmith-yf3wd]

The 9th makes a minor pentatonic sound very dorian as well.

[@thenut1212]

Do you own a Languadoc guitar?

[@cloudydandy]

Le portrait de Dorian Gray

[@AngelinaGarganoMusic]

...finding Dorian...he he

[@j-b3rk61]

Anyone know how to get tone like that on a Mustang II amp?

[@jordanrowland9560]

Try the blues distortion into a Fender

[@James57AOL]

I offer this one train of thought, I have a variety of modeling amps....including a Mustang modeling amp. As well as a few others..... My point goes to this. When trying to achieve someone else s tone I have to go to the real pedal use to for what ever the reason be able to tweak and refine more readily. Now my thought is that if you yourself find the dial up tone here. let me know. When its not a modern industrial tone. I go to pedals

[@James57AOL]

I m going to ask because you made the impetus that all things relative to the Ionian scale. But you step out to the Pentatonic as the key reference to the Dorian ......For continuity of your statements and knowledge, wouldn't be better to go directly to and stay relative to the Ionian mode when stepping up or down reference. Is that how its suppose to be understood, interesting how you offer this relative mode awareness. Ionian to all major modes and Aeolian to all relative minor modes. Now that is a good position to stand on. No shaky ground there. Earlier in the video would be great from now on this topic please

[@jurimatveev3888]

man it would be nice to explain Dorian mod with a clear head without ha ha

[@619122222]

I like the sound of the prs better

[@sambaskates]

big time breakthrough

[@shleprockshleprock]

Great vids but seems you get off track a lot...hard to follow. You start talking about modes then go into some random topic out of nowhere.?

[@shleprockshleprock]

StichMethod Guitar No problem...I've picked up some stuff. Metal player but like your vids! 😊
