RE: The Dood Plays Fingerstyle Blues

in Guitar3 years ago

Love it! I'm not a huge crypto person but I've found learning new pieces and documenting them here is such a huge help. Also christmas songs are the best. Most years when family is around over the break I get asked to play something, and usually I just freeze. No one wants to hear Guthrie Govan licks. Being able to play a solo acoustic guitar song is so good.

Thanks! I'm finally getting comfortable enough to start sharing some music. I was "all thumbs" getting started again.

The Christmas music was super helpful to start getting comfortable playing this way. For me, it's just so awkward playing this style. Concentrating on tempo, reading the music, keeping the rhythm, using my thumb and fingers. Its so confusing. Already knowing the xmas melodies really helped a lot, and the family did enjoy them at the holidays.

Being able to play a solo acoustic guitar song is so good.

Pretty much why I want to learn this style of playing. I love watching people play this style and I always said if I started playing again this would be the style I'd focus on.

I thought it would be fun to document and see my own progress too. Plus I think it will really motivate me to improve.

Thanks for watching and commenting! Appreciate the input, I love your playing! Very inspirational!
