:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: That little clip is hilarious! And you're such a good sport.

Great job on another MB song Chris! I would agree with Daryl, you seem more relaxed.

Which tips and tricks does Corina mean? Not looking at your fretting hand? I think you're looking at the lyrics instead, right? That's fine, don't get me wrong, it obviously doesn't allow you to look at your fretting hand too much. :laugh: She probably doesn't mean the tip in the little 'teaching' clip.

In any way, many thanks for sharing, kudos and pizza points! xoxo

Yeah, the video was one of many fun moments of the summer, Ness! Corina meant not looking at the fretting hand, I think.

At camp I found it very distracting in front of the mic, not being able to see my fretting if I wanted to face the mic to sing into it, which made me nervous.... so I am practicing using a mic and not looking at my hands. Didn't need lyrics as I usually know them... except if I get nervous... like at camp. I'm still a bit nonplussed about how getting up on stage in front of a mic and 40 people could make me unsure about lyrics or the next chord on songs I know so well! So I am practicing performance here in the vid and a lot at the moment. Once you can play a song, performance becomes so important! Thanks for tuning in!

I love all your moody songs.

Well done, Chris. Great song. Enjoyed watching the video.

I need to get my guitar mojo back.

Many thanks Willem!

Jay! Such a long time no see! Great to hear from you, how's it going? You really do need to get your mojo back!

Yeah.... Chris, It's really me I know, I've been away too long....
Am here now though! After a fantastic Summer, back to the normal life, well, the working life I guess And back on TGforum.

And enjoying all the posts! :woohoo:

Yes, Ness I'm referring to your comment not to look at the fretting hand too much and facing the camera, amongst other recommendations you always make in general, when shooting a video or performing. Always helpful
No doubt about the fact that Chris knows the lyrics of the song! Duh, Moody Blues, he actually mostly knows by heart B)

p.s. " If "? Right Craig?
