GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Is Anyone Practicing Right Now?

Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Jun 9 2011, 12:54 PM

If the answer is yes what are you working on?

Posted by: Qenzoz Jun 9 2011, 12:57 PM

Well, no one is practicing right now, since you can't practice properly and check out the forum and type at the same time , unless what you're practicing is practicing guitar and checking the forum and typing..

Other than that I am about to practice and that would be some riffs from a song

I am...or I was, before I got interrupted by your question
I am practicing Ben's Scorpions lesson, his Land of Legato 1 lesson and Muris' alternate picking - thirds lesson. One after the other

HA! Caught you red handed

instead of practicing you're spending time on the forum

Ben's gonna find out about this (I already prepared an extreme push-up training in advance)

how many donuts have you got to soothe the British Beast?

Posted by: Gitarrero Jun 9 2011, 01:32 PM

I knew it was a trap set up by the Shaolin Master of guitar! But I honestly thought "Cosmin is such a nice guy, he'd never support the British Beast!"...I better go to the bakery next door and get all the Donuts they have, should be a dozen, maybe more. That will soothe him for an hour or two

Edit: Just back from the bakery...I wonder which Donut he would have liked better, if I hadn't eaten both of them

Now that is just mean.. Now I'm hungry for something delicious... They look really reallly good

I'm trying to combine Ben's level 1 legato and vibrato technique lessons with Andrew's theory lessons to practice scales. It's quite hard, but backing tracks make practicing so much more fun

Ben Higgins has endless sustain though man, how the hell does he do that? I bet you awesome instructors can break boards with your fretting fingers karate style.
