This idea is as discussed here:

My Bass forums

Now, there’s a few ways we can do this. One would be for me to tell you what notes im playing, and then you can play along… But. Where is the fun in that? I figure that it would be more of a challenge for me to tell you the opening note, only. I’ll tell you why: When you’re jamming with other musicians, it isn’t always suitable to ask for notes/chords, etc. When the drummer and guitarist are already jamming on a good riff, it isn’t really cool to stop them and ask what the guitarist is playing, so you can figure out what to play. And this is where playing by ear/sight comes into play. You can see what fret the guitarist is playing off. Thats the first. If that fails, do it by ear. Listen. Work from feel… It will be hard at first, but don’t give up! Learning to train your ear, is a valuable tool in the playing and writing of music. Now, once these riffs are up and at it, i’d like to see responses to my guitar/drum track. I’d like to see people get involved. It doesn’t matter what standard you are at, everyone is welcome to join in. We are all at different stages of the same journey, and the experienced players also had to start out, and work hard to get good. If you’re shy, there is no need to show your face. Turn comments and ratings off if you don’t care what the youtube public have to say (they can be cruel). We can discuss progress/riffs of each individual player, here at my forums. This way we can give positive criticism, without malice. The aim of this project is for people to build confidence. Not have it destroyed…
