Hi all. Its great to finally find a forum whose members are so active! I joined in the debate surrounding 'tab' and was pleasantly surprised by the immediate feedback. So, by way of introduction:
I'm 49, recently moved to the sunny Queensland coast here in Australia and I've been playing about 2 years <teacher's note - could do better, see me after school!>. My musical tastes didn't really progress much for a long time ... I got stuck with Santana and Pink Floyd (they're still favourites, of course) but now I'm trying to listen to other music and broaden my horizons.
Right now I'm feeling a little stuck in that progress isn't as fast as I think it should be - probably because of lack of
direction in practice rather than lack of practice per se. This site, with its forums and video lessons will I'm sure add another valuable piece to the exciting guitar-playing jigsaw puzzle. I'm studying theory, too - that I find this extremely interesting may give you some insight into my character
Also trying to get to grips with home recording, so anyone with a similar interest, especially if you actually know what you're doing, please feel free to respond!
Also, if you live anywhere near Southport and want to meet to fumble around on guitar, please let me know.
OK, that's more than enough for now ... thx for reading. Looking forward to getting to know you guys better!
