Playing the music and being subjected to it are totally different. I played guitar and trumpet in my youth and doing Christmas music for the school and the town parade were always a blast. But now that I’m a jaded adult…lol
Getting my guitar out and figuring out new songs is still a lot of fun, even if I’m kind of terrible at it.
I played bass with a little four piece band in college. I’d listen to a lot of music with the bass turned up so I could learn basslines, practice them, and then build off of them and do my own thing. And it was a pretty easy transition since a bass is strung just like a guitar without a B or high E string. I haven’t played regularly in a long time, but I do find time to get the guitar out and kill time when I’m at home alone here and there. Most of the music I listen to is one of like four different chord progressions, each made up of three or four chords lol
It’s especially fun to learn the old ones, because they usually have really complicated jazz chord progressions. You just don’t notice because the melody is so strong
