Hi mate, (I don't know your name sorry). Firstly, great to see you post a video. There is an excellent chance of a review by Neil I would say. I think it's your first one?

Great job I thought. You played it at a tempo you could handle with accuracy, and the tempo seemed very consistent to me. As you become more familiar with it, it will start to flow even better. Your Travis picking looked real solid to me.

Keep them coming! Great work.

Hello Everyone,

Thanks for all of the positive feedback. This is an older video (last January) of me. I struggled for the last year to get a video up with little luck with the tech support team. This was actually a last ditch effort to try an upload or I was going to give up on TG. I haven't even really been on the site for a while because I was frustrated/really busy. I am very psyched that this is finally working for me.

Again, thanks for all of the kind words. I really wanted to get this one posted because to me it sounds like there is something fundamentally wrong with the main riff. I don't know if it is just because it is a little slower or if I have something off with the melody notes.

Thanks again,

Mike

Hi Mike, great to see a video from you and that you did not give up. I thought your playing was smooth and that the rhythm is kept at the slower speed you decided to play. It sounds very promising.
