Not really busking, but the best place to upload I think. Just wanting to share some progress.



PLEASE NOTE: If video was recently uploaded it will not work yet. YouTube will need a little more time to get the video ready. Please check back again soon.

Hi Tony, you are on your way to being the bluesman. There is more fluidity and confidence in your playing.

You may not see the improvement because it is a little at a time for you, but we only see or hear you occassionaly, so can see you are making real progress!

Keep up the good work. I look forward to your next video. :)

Hear hear Tom, the progress is self-evident, even without hearing the audio, you can see the improvement in technique.

That's really very encouraging guys thank you very much. Tom that's exactly my mindset for posting every so often. I can't really tell if there is improvement (I think there is for sure) but it's good to run it past people every so often for a 2nd opinion.

The journey continues!

Tony,

You're progress is earth shattering. You're a different man. Whatever you're doing, keep it up.

My only comment, is that I would have loved to have heard this against a backing track of some sort.

You're doing great. I'm dead envious.

Enormous improvement! Way better bends (though there were some you should have choked off). Like Michele said, I'd love to hear this against a backing track. It would be way more interesting, and would show how good your timing or groove was. Also, I felt you were rushing through some of the licks (but without a backing track it's hard to really tell).

I'm so happy you include us all in your journey. Keep posting!

Definitely marked improvement. You're not clipping off notes, which makes the sustain sweeter. Very nice job, Tony. And is that a new Stratocaster I spy?

Yeah Den it just sort of appeared....there are Strats and Teles falling from the sky down here.

Thanks for comments everyone. Next time I upload I will definitely use a backing track as requested/suggested. Cheers.
