  Not practice… just play

  Awesome to have fun in a guided way. I played, strummed and Diddled with the Blues Shuffle thing while strumming other chords and stuff for almost 2 1/2 hours last night watching Monday Night Football. Fingers toughening …. 🙂

  I do a good amount of my guitar time in front of the TV. It’s great, time flys and you can just repeat chord sequences over and over until you get them down. I don’t think I would have ever learned to play a song if I hadn’t started “practicing” this way.

  That is so cool that you did that. It’s exactly what Tony talks about during improv lessons. I really need to do that more. I’ve never done well with this, and I need to just grab a guitar and mindlessly play like that. My problem is that I don’t watch t.v., so I would have to use a backing track on YouTube or Google.
