Derper's Holy Grail Of Axe Knowledge |

Nope didn't think so either. We all know parents don't get this.
I can show you how to be the virtuoso your folks could only dream about, but I first need your help:
* Pm me and I will show you where to start. I am online every day and I will help you out directly!
* Join my mentoring program. I will customize your learning experience in a way you haven't experienced before. We will have regular contact so that you can remain inspired every day and eventually reach a new level.
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Oh and did you know that to become a killer guitarist you just need to focus on one thing? Everything
else is secondary. Pm me and I will explain.

I'll post this here also, to "transfer the conversation" over here to my new thread!
Most days (at least 5 of 7) I should be able to commit an hour to a dedicated practice routine. Thanks to my work, I'm usually able to play much more each day. I usually play EVERY day, and if I take a full day off on my "weekend", I always make sure to hit it the next day!! Obviously, I'm trying to figure out how much time per day I can dedicate to a NEW practice routine, and I'll work on my own band material outside of that. I've already given a brief outline of what I'd like to incorporate into a practice routine, but you may (and are encouraged to!) have other techniques you think I should work on as well. I'm here to learn! I may put together a quick "getting to know me" video, and put it in "my thread".... I may be able to explain my strong/weak points a bit better over video, and with a guitar in my hand!! Thanks Cosmin! Looking forward to getting started on this journey.... and remember, if I ever say I have a "weak spot", it's just a short form of saying "a strength I haven't yet spent enough time to develop"!! -------------------- Check out my awesome Nintendo Cover-band, EMULATOR!! http://www.reverbnation.com/emulator Now.....go practice!! |

Sound right on!!
So....last night I got an invite to sit in at one of Portland's finest funk/jazz venues, with top-notch world class players!! I was pretty nervous coming into it, but practiced to backing tracks (and Melvin Sparks!!) for over an hour beforehand, to ensure I'd be loose and have good phrasing. I knew I couldn't kill them with chops, so I had to relax and rely on soul, phrasing and more. It went GREAT!! I'm invited back in two weeks, and eventually I'll be able to post a recording of my performance here! It was a huge moment for me, because these guys are my heroes! As always....looking forward to improving more every day!! Hey Gabe, what do you think of the following idea: 1hr a day in which we can focus on - technique, as out of what I've seen you need to correct a few things - chords and arpeggios - they go hand in hand - theory can be learned in a more fun and easy way if you pay attention to the theory parts of the lessons here at GMC Now, tangible progress is something which will motivate you so we can work on lessons here at GMC and if you'd like, we can prepare them for the REC zone and aim for 10s so that you may become as awesome as possible what do you think about this plan mate?
