Busking Musical Puzzle

[schm040]

Hey TG Friends,
I added this new thread after some thought. You know how when you are learning a song and you play it for someone and they have no idea what you are playing? I get that a lot and want to improve my ability to play songs that people can recognize and enjoy.

That said, if anyone is willing to go along with this concept, I intend to post songs I am working on under this new Band Name in the Busking channel in the hopes that SOMEONE will recognize what I am playing.

As always, feedback is welcome and thanks ahead of time.

On a side note, I have reached a point in my playing and my life where I don't care if others don't think I am a good guitar player. Learning this instrument is part of my life and that is all that matters to me. Of course, those on this site understand that and are a big inspiration for me.

Matt

Virgil, I know what song you're playing. And I know what you mean about others not knowing what it is you are trying to play. That's the problem with not singing along with the strumming or picking.

Hi Chester ,

I definitely know the song :cheer: , but don't want to post it so others can have a listen.

I get that reaction at home all the time while practicing. At least it has gone from "WTF???" to 'Hey I recognize that, what is it?". A marked improvement for me.... :woohoo:

I don't care either, and guitar has certainly become a wonderful part of my life. Great attitude.

BTW, can you take Jack, my dog??????

P.S. The playing sounded great to me........... B)

Well it's real cool
If you can rule this tune
Take it all outa bounds
Mess up the rules

But when you gotta play it
With some friends
Maybe they gonna say
Howzit startz, Howzit enz ?

But, I agree: This is real fun exploration ! Keep'm coming

You guys are hilarious!!!

Glad to see this concept was well received.

This song has to be in the top 10 campfire songs of all time, mostly because who cares if you sing in key.....

Thanks, now I need to think of my next mystery post.
