>> Newest Target members only lesson - Fly On The Wall - Lynn Comes Back For More

[tgjameela]

Hi Everyone,

Today's Target members only lesson is a new Fly On The Wall.

Lynn is out Target member from Virginia who came in for a lesson a few months back and returned for a second visit recently. This time we started with a check up or her progress on God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, which led into a brush-up session on scales and chord construction, before we headed into Open G Tuning ideas. That started with a look at Steve Goodman’s song The Dutchman, followed by a little general theory on open tunings, and than a look at a few other songs, including Here Comes The Sun and Big Yellow Taxi.

Enjoy!

Thanks Willem, Dermot, and Neil, too.
We covered a lot of ground in that lesson and I got re-inspired to dig into the theory stuff today. My son (the music major) got out his theory book and helped me out a bit, too.

You know what's the best part of getting older? Not being so self-conscious...I can actually watch the entire lesson and not feel embarrassed. :unsure:

Cheers,
Lynn

Lynn,

Thank you so much for allowing Neil and the folks at TG to share these sessions. I feel that I have started to understand chords and scales fairly well, and am gaining some very limited knowledge on modes. This was a perfect lesson for me to help clear up some lingering questions. Also, you play very nicely. Your picking sounds very clear when you get rolling....

Oh Lynn, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Your a natural. You ask great questions, you don't let your nerves get the best of you. Your a pleasure to watch. I got to sit in that seat a year ago, I wasn't so calm. You did really well. I learn more theory from these FOTW lessons, than I ever would on my own because of a self discipline thing. Thanks for taking one for the team. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Jason,
I too, learned a lot about modes and scales and theory and such. As I said, I got right back into that after watching that part of the lesson.
Each time I work on theory, I understand a bit more.
Like improving my technique, I just have to keep at it.

Thanks Scott and Dermot,
For your encouragement. I do wish I could play better in those lessons.
I guess I should get up the courage and post something for Neil to review.
