    Who uses them? I personally hate them. They're inconsistent from one to another. Standard notation is so much more reliable and universal.

    i might use em if i didnt learn all my stuff by ear. i mean a tab is a tab, just another musician trying to help out others by using a poor form of visual guidlines
    When drummers are away from their instruments, which is quite often, they often resort to air drumming. Although often distracting to others, playing air drums provides drummers with a mental practice session that can help a great deal.

    In my opinion i think there crap i have always done it by ear or standard notation as it seems to be much more reliable. Hasn't mxtabs been shut down for some reason.

    I rarely use them, but often times if I come up with a cool rhythm while I'm practicing I will tab it out on a piece of paper so I don't forget it. I usually refer back to it the next few times I'm practicing and then it gets filed away in my memory. My short term memory sucks, so it is very helpful to me.

    I hate all forms of tablature really. I'm not good at sight reading, but I vastly prefer proper music notation to that messy scrawl. It's usually wrong anyway, and I trust my ear a lot more than anyone else.
    Sucks that I can't learn anything from ear with a melodic instrument though xD
