Hi and welcome to GMC. Your story almost made me cry. Great to hear that you picked up that guitar. Now you can make up all you wanted for your son and get your music out loud for everybody to hear. Rock on \m/

It takes time with the fingers. Regardless of age. But it comes if you keep at it, and focus. Based on what I have observed here, it is the same for everybody, regardless of age. So long as you don't have early arthritis or something, it will come if you stick at it. I think being older can help you also, you can be smarter, and work smarter. For example, I don't waste my time with stuff like collaborations or recording. I don't have time to fool around. I just practice lessons, that is time best spent, by a long shot. I have 120 I work on, and intend to never have more than that. That is all I want to know, and it is enough. One needs to set goals and limits, or you never reach your potential. If a lesson comes up that I can't resist, I punt one of the 120 to make room and forget them. Two very good ones recently were these...
https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/i_want...ay_in_megadeth/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/joe_sa...lways_with_you/ and I punted two others to make room. And I don't miss them. Anymore I look for something very special and unique, because the 120 I have are I think the Cream of the crop, and it takes something pretty good for me to be willing to punt one. But like I said, I am mastering 120, and that is all I want, I think that is knowing enough, and at that point I am best off just perfecting what I have selected, than looking for anything more, enough is enough. Just thought being in the direction of your age, I would share my philosophy with you, and it seems to be working well fo me, at least that is my perception. edit: Oh, I just read a book you might be interested in, I thought it quite good, scholarly. "Retribution" by a Brit, Max Hastings. On the last year of WWII in the Pacific. He has a companion dealing with Europe called "Armageddon" which I have but have not read yet. I did read his Korean War book, pretty good, but not as good as "Retribution". This post has been edited by fkalich: Jul 30 2009, 05:38 AM |
