Life and Guitar Updates.
Oct. 25th, 2023 12:36 pmI realise that I've been MIA this month, so I thought I would pop in with a quick update.
I am really starting to make great progress on guitar, and last night at my local park was magical. I figured out the melody for Scott's extended guitar lead in If Life is So Short as seen here. It's going to take some time to work out the rest, but every baby step counts!
I think acquiring an electric guitar will also be a game changer as well. I don't think I mentioned it, but one of the staff members at the music store I had been perusing declined to allow me to try out the electric guitar they have as a demo unit some weeks back. This is despite the fact that I had been allowed to try it out several months ago. Is this normal? You need to be able to test drive the products you're going to buy, no? I decided that I won't be purchasing my first electric guitar with them. I had my eye on a Kurt Cobain guitar that they had for sale, but oh well.
I will instead either go back to the chain that I purchased my (second) acoustic guitar from, or find a local dealer instead.
In any case, last night was a moment in this musical journey. The songs I reviewed last night in addition to If Life include The Moffatts' songs, Miss You Like Crazy, and Misery. I also practised Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Green Day, and Stop by the Spice Girls.
Truly a 90s kind of night, eh?
I also started working on a thing last week. Doesn't this location look so much like Canada? β€οΈπ¨π¦
For my mutals on DW, I promise that I haven't abandoned you! This month has been chaotic, and I have a lot of things that I need to get caught up on! I'll see you again soon.
In the meantime, you can check out my YouTube channel here for the latest videos that I've posted and get a glimpse into some of the things I've been working on recently. This video and this video are the first videos I've posted to feature some of my guitar practise as background music.
