Hello everyone,

I while back I promised Spinland I would start posting videos after seeing his progress I got inspired. Heres my first crack at it trying to figure out a camera, sound etc...I have a lot to learn yet to get up to TG standards these days! Please provide any feedback that may help me out with recording videos and of course the guitar playing!

i promise to keep working on it and post some videos in the near future after I get some feedback and try to improve.

Thanks everyone!

The other Mark

Fantastic! Very smooth playing. Your guitar sounded great! Looks like a Martin? You MUST upload more. The only criticism I have is that your camera started "getting into the music" after you started playing "Wild World" (I guess it didn't much care for your rendition of "Wild Horses". ;-)

More please.

Thanks Daryl :)

My camera was sitting on a piece of furniture that I bumped into while playing, it almost wobbles to the beat!

Yes it is a Martin DCPA3 I'm playing and a few other toys behind me.

I will post more

Hi, Mark!

Rather late to the party, but catching up on the forum.

Yow, I loved the video! Like Daryl said: such smooth playing, and with feeling and sensitivity. Please post more! :side:

Hi Other Mark :P

Nice post and cool sound!
I thought the wobbliing camera was just dancing along with your playing ;)
No worries, things like this happen and as long as you're not bothered by it, and still feel comfortable enough to post the vid, it's all good.
As you can tell, at TG we are supportive and sure to give some positive feedback.

Looking forward to more posts,
Corina :cheer:

Mark,

Nice work! Sounds good.

I had to laugh, I have the exact same white binder with the plastic cover sheets ... and it looked like my "Wild Horses" and "Wild World" are in the same locations as yours!! :laugh:

Keep up the good work!

Craig
