how many of you have this app?  it rocks!  awesome practice tool, and great to bring on gigs.  it helps to have a bandmate email you a library of 800 tunes, hypothetically speaking.

on another note, just bought the bert ligon book #2.  i really love his style of writing, explanations, and the way he draws from a very broad musical experience.

check these out if you haven't already, pretty useful stuff!  no affiliations for me, just appreciate them.

wonder if they have something like that for android?  although it's better to have a tablet for these kinds of things i would guess- hard to read a lead sheet on a 4" screen!
If I'm not back in 24 hours, call the president.

yes, they have the same app on android, and yes android comes in tablet size screens :-)

see samsung galaxy tab for the best tablet on the market today, and vizio for one of of the cheapest.
it turns out, the kindle fire i bought my wife for christmas is and android. only a couple hundred bux, and a decent sized screen
i think what i want to get is a good windows tablet and then run an android emulator in it if i need android stuff.  get the best of both worlds, though i'm curious as to whether or not there are good windows tablets out there!

i use it since 2011 with my old ipad, it comes on very handy especially when i play in a dark places. i practiced through all the four books by bert ligon i learned lot from him and i still refer to them to expand my knowledge and practice.
