Hello from Canada

I have always wanted to learn how to play.a few years ago i purchased a guitar and the Hal Leonard method books,and the supplimentals.well my ex girlfriend who wasnt as encouraging as i would have hoped.i was getting into it when she started complaining about me playing the beatles "let it be" over and over.well unfortunatly it turned me off of playing.
well she is gone and now im going to try it again.
cool site .....wish me luck

You have to find a woman who is supportive of your playing. Even better, one that encourages you to buy gear and does so for your birthdays and Xmas. Glad your picking it up again.

Welcome back to playing the guitar.


Now when I talk to God he said he'd understand, Stick by me I'll be your guiding hand. But don't ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer you want me to.

Welcome to the forum nwyoung. It's great that you've decided to take it up again. I agree with AT; get yourself a girl who will be there for you when you get G.A.S.
