John-

Cement Mixer is a real bugger to me. I’ve worked on that one for 5, 10-minute sessions, and it’s just somehow confusing to me- even when I slow it way down.

I just can not seem to consistently get those pinches- (on two adjacent strings)- to sound even between the two- and then there are the hammer-ons—- and offs.

I can play it, but it’s inconsistent, bad, and there is no speed that slow.

I’m gonna give it maybe 3 more sessions then say the heck with it regardless. If I move on without mastering it, it would only be the second time in over 4 months. However– I hardly ever get to “Tony-speed”………🤨

Anyway– great job on the wins— both of them!
