Short Final: Blues In The Blue Skies

For AVweb fans who are also students of music theory, from reader Mike Toews:

I teach aerobatics part-time at a local flight school and received the following text from a musically inclined student who was getting frustrated with numerous booking cancellations due to weather, maintenance, scheduling issues, etc., etc.

“I'm writing a song called 'Aerobatic Blues.'
"It's just me sobbing into a microphone for three minutes over a bunch of off-tempo minor chords.”
