Hey Everybody, Back in December we started our first 3-Minute Challenge and now, after a couple months of slacking, we are starting up Version 2.0 . The goal is to pick up your guitar every day for 30 days, but just commit to 3 minutes a day. Of course, more is fine and encouraged. This 30 days comm...

https://youtu.be/osgxaU1m9-8 February 23, 2024 We have scheduled a couple exciting things for the very near future. The first is that it is about time for another live event. On Saturday March 2 we will host a free session with me going over Intervals that are heard and used commonly in thousands of...

Hey Julian, Thanks for the post and review. I had a great time working with you as well, and I felt like we got a lot accomplished in a short time. Hopefully there is enough there to work on for the time being and I'd be happy to see you again. Neil P.S. It was an interesting coincidence that we tal...

Hey Gang, Nesh is still on an REO Speedwagon kick and brings us a very detailed lesson on Time For Me To Fly. https://youtu.be/CTh2l4zKAVI Time For Me To Fly is a song by American rock band REO Speedwagon, released in 1978 as the second single from the album 'You Can Tune A Piano, But You Can't Tuna...

https://youtu.be/uVVhHzQCcjA February 2, 2024 Not much in the way of headlines or news this week, but a lot of tunes. Due to a recent lesson I have had Can't Help Falling In Love running through my head for a few days. I started with a short instrumental version that I hope purges it from my running...
