Hi Pedja,
I'm really happy to have a chance to work with you for the next 3 months. I didn't realize until now you had open this Thred. here is what I wrote when I joined MTP with Emir : 1. About me and my musical background I'm 36, live in France and teach math in a school. I'm also an amateur free software developer : http://www.pyromaths.org. I've been playing guitar for 16 years now. But I'm really not satisfied with my playing (who is anyway). I've got some technical basics but can't really improvise a solo. I think I've been most of the time studying technic and not enough playing music. I've been playing in a metal band for a year or so and in a progressive band who did Dream theater covers (which were awful I must admit). 2. Favorite guitarists I enjoy a lot of different styles. I've started listening to Pink Floyd and Dire Straits and love David Gilmour and Mark Knoppfler. Then I started to listen to metal music and guitar heroes. I love John Petrucci (in Dream Theater, not fan of his solo album), Steve Vai, Greg Howe and Guthrie Govan. I also listen to some Jazz and love John Scofield, Pat Metheny and Al Di Meola. 3. Favorite music style Depending of my mood, I can listen Between the burried and me, Pat Metheny, Mozart, Pink Floyd. Except electronic and pop music, I think I love a lot of different styles. 4. What I expect from the MTP I'd like to learn my fretboard, how to construct a rhythmic and a solo that can fit to it, and eventually some technics. I would like to know what to play when I have a guitar and a listener. Which is the aim of music, isn't it ?  I also wish I can play a piece tastefully. I usually play the notes but it's like I can't put any emotion in it. I've started to learn the major scale with Emir. But I'm still at the beginning of the journey... Hope this is a correct introduction. If you need any more information, ask and I'll try to answer. Here are some videos from my previous MTP and REC program : Can't wait to hear from you. -------------------- �Million-to-one chances crop up nine times out of ten.�
