Hi everybody! I'm a fan of Planet X since the begining!! but I haven't joined the club till now...as I am a beginner maybe I'll make a silly question but I'd like to Know if it's possible to get planet x scores (concretly Pods of Trance) as I'm gonna do my graduation concert in L'Aula de Musica Moderna i Jazz de Barcelona and I want to play that song...I have a lot of work to do and (I'm a drummer!!!) it would be a lot easier to my if I could get the score (if there isn't anything by there I make an score and you correct it for me!!!!:D). Just say that Planet X is one of the best bands in the world and you musicians are simply genius!! Thank you very much!

Hey man, welcome to the board!

I'm not sure if there are any scores available of this song but... Do you really need a score to play this song? I learned, played and recorded it once with Jemmy (another member here. :) ) and it's not THAT hard to figure out, unless you specifically want to play every single note that Virgil plays, but that's virtually impossible anyway. So here's my tip:
Play along to the song a few times, make some notes for yourself if necessary. Become familiar with the structure and where there is space for improvisation.

Good luck with your graduation!

Vicmaic, I sent you a private message earlier today, asking specifically not to post the same question/thread in to different sections of this message board (General Chat and Ask Planet X).

I will remove double threads and if you keep on posting double threads I might have to consider actions.

To be honest, I think the best way to go about this is just transcribing yourself. The more you do it, the easier it gets. I'm at the point now where I can actually know what a chord is, provided it's not too weird, without touching a guitar.
