Hey Happy Birthday , a day early. For some reason I can't see the yesterday video. Probably has something to do with the firewall on my company server. I don't know how the expect me to communicate with all my TG buddies with them blocking my content all the time. It's like they expect me to do some work around here. LOLHi I'm Mark and I'm 44 (45 tomorrow) and from England.
I started my love/hate relationship with playing the guitar over 20 years ago.
I would say that I'm an intermediate guitar player.
What I play is very much determined by what I am able to play.
I definately can't sing a note and my attempts at lead/improvisation have always been poor.
Playing fingerpicking and picking out the melody has been a good solution for me.
It allows me to play something recognisable and means I don't have to sing.
I've never played live to an audience (unless you count a couple of strum alongs to a dunken rugby club).
I've been a member of target since the very start and I think it has definately improved my guitar playing. I think I have a better feel for the rhythm. now.
Anyway I will take a look at it when I get home. I can echo all your comments, especially about learning chord/melody playing. It takes me a little longer to learn the tune, but it has been much more satisfying for me after I get the piece down.
Happy Playing!
Kevin
