Maybe Neil could also explain why he used in the sing along a tempo 73 BPM and played just each chord over one measer,,and!! in the rhytm part lesson/video (no capo) he takes a tempo from 110 and plays the chords over two measers,,

It's not because of the tempo Willem, it's because of the strumming pattern. Two sets of the folk/rockstrum equals one set of the balladstrum. It depends on how you count blah blah, I need a video to explain this but I hope you got it. ;)

Thx,,I think I know, I think if we saw it on paper its better to understand,,when Neil explain the folkstrum D-DU-FAKE-UDU and said 2x(or two measers) maybe we think its all 1/8 notes but it aint I guess,,I would be thankfull if this becomes an explain in a video by Neil or you Vanessa...

I think I've got the campfire strum Neil explains it's the picking accuracy without anchoring my little finger
that's causing me a problem, the constant up down up of the right had while simultaneously picking the notes..... it's a tricky
thing to practice without stopping as Neil discusses in the lesson.... "Don't do this......" :S


And then put everything in one measer with 73 BPM(one measer Bm and one measer F#7) I guess..

Hi Willem

I watched the play through and see what you mean one measure for each chord.
